Industrial Revolution Is Affecting the Daily Lives of People.
I don’t have to tell you we are in the midst of the industrial revolution.  For you and your family this may be a good time in your life. However, it could be a difficult time for you and your family.  Today in my column I am going to report to you some of the ways the Industrial Revolution is affecting the daily lives of people. I would like to begin by addressing the most obvious, problem we have to face.  Living conditions, now depending who you are your living conditions may be wonderful if you are a factory owner you may live in a castle such as Cliffe or Keighley Castles.  However whatI found to be the more common place is workers living in sub-standard conditions. Sanitary arrangements are often non-existent and many toilets are “of the earth” out houses.  Other homes are built back to back with communal toilets.  Theses outhouses are supposed to be emptied by “soil men” at night.  However what I have discovered is that this is not taking place.  Upon investigation we found, heaps of solid waste piled up close to some of the houses.This has allowed the disease causing germs to pollute the water. This contributed to the spread Cholera, a violent sickness and diarrhea.  Over 50% of the people who contract the illness die.The poorest of the poor live in overcrowded and inadequate housing.  There are even some people living in cellars. It has been reported that in one instance 17 people from different families were living in an area of 5 meters X 4 meters.  Chronic hunger and malnutrition are a fact of daily life.  This is especially true for the poorest of the poor. The cost of clothing and other goods is decreasing. This is good news for the growing middle class and the upper class. The average life expectancy age is around 37 here in London, 45 in England and only 26 years old in Liverpool. Poor nutrition, disease and lack of sanitation and harmful medical care in our urban areas affect the life expectancy age.
