The Transformation Of Societies Into Industrialized Nations

Industrialization during the time period of Industrial Revolution has improved the systems of communication, transportation, and standard of living by manufacturing mass productions. Through the development over the centuries, our life became convenient compared to hundreds of years ago. Nevertheless, as we continuously pursue convenience for our lifestyles, the Earth is constantly damaged by human’s desire. During the Industrial Revolution, there was a lack of industrial regulations on the limitation of chemicals and greenhouse gas emission. Thus, industries did not consider the preservation of nature and exposed the enormous amount of contaminants into our nature. This mistakes of early age have led to destructions in our natural resources

According to the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), an estimated 18 million acres of forest, which is roughly the size of the country of Panama, are lost each year. Undeniably, the deteriorating environmental situation, the increasingly severe pollution of the atmosphere, and water, the severe damage to the living environment of wild animals and plants, the extinction of many species, the deforestation and the transitional mining of mineral resources caused contrary facts. Human existence and development have brought real and more serious potential threats. The scarcity of environmental resources is manifested gradually. As environmental issues are becoming a bottleneck restricting economic growth, it is imperative that lousy effect governed the environment.

There are loads of different ways that we as humans affect the world and the environment we live in. Some things that we do can not only change and affect the environment but can also affect our health.

Courses on perspectives in environmental health are designed to introduce public health professionals to basic environmental science concepts. Students learn how about the public health impacts of various environmental exposures and processes. Coursework on global public health issues covers standard topics, such as population growth and infant mortality, and global health topics, such as future public health trends that are impacting domestic conditions. Learning about public health advocacy prepares students to drive the transformation of relevant laws and

The environment is the home to all living and non-living organisms. It can be compared to a life support system that ensures the well-being of everyone. Recent cases of environmental degradation pose a threat to nature and the entire ecosystem. There has been increased awareness to educate individuals on the need to protect our environment with the aim of protecting the natural beauty and sustaining humanity.

In the late 1800’s, a thing called Industrialization started to occur. Industrialization is when our economy went from an agriculture (farming) economy to an industrial (manufacturing) economy. There were many very important leaders in the industrialization movement in the late 1800’s. Andrew Carnegie, George Eastman, Henry Ford and J.D Rockefeller were all Captains of Industry and had a big impact on the industrialization movement and made it more positive than negative. Industrialization had a positive impact on American society. The Transcontinental Railroad, the steel industry and the automotive industry all had big advantages during this industrialization movement.

The Civil War played a big role in transforming Old industries into Modern industries. After the Civil was industrialization played a big part in helping the country progress. Industrialization helped move society forward with new transportation methods, new jobs, and the economy. The period when railroads were being built was a process that benefited many people. Stockholders brought. The authors of the book state “Stockholders bought a share in the company and received dividends if the company prospered.” Roark, James L.; Johnson, Michael P.; Cohen, Patricia Cline; Stage, Sarah; Hartmann, Susan M.

A century ago, people would have to use typewriters, large machines and carriages to travel, communicate or sell their products. Now, people can quickly snap out their smartphones with ease and exchange information virtually for their individual needs. The transition from the industrial revolution which lasted from 1760 to 1840, to the information age (late 1950s to current time) has transformed US society because internet technology makes people emotionally isolated in real time. Throughout these two ages of immense change, people’s universe of obligation has altered because society has shifted from the focus of specialized communities to a more global environment . These changes in how society communicates has led people to perseverate

Capitalism has a huge impact on the environment and worker’s health and safety. As result of Mexico “lax environmental standards and easy evasion”, pollution has become a serious problem (Wise 2003, p. 177). Factories do not adequately dispose of toxic waste, which has caused the contamination of the water, air, and soil (Wise 2013). Marx argued that the metabolic rift degrades the natural social relation between human and environment because factories cause an accumulation of waste, which cause a pollution problem (Clark 2005) Thus, capitalism disrupts relationship between human and the environment. Unfortunately, Mexico, is not the only place where exploitation of resources leads to metabolic rift. In the 1800 century, Britain began to export

The decline of the environment due to natural and human exertion is known as the degradation of the environment. The natural weather occurrences such as heavy rain, flooding, storms, earthquakes, volcanoes etc. are not administered under human control. These meteorological phenomenon’s wreak devastation on the environment from time to time causing the land to become unsuitable to cultivate. On this subject matter, the human population does not contain the power to stop the wrath of Mother Nature. Rather, we are forced to sit back and watch. Nevertheless, humans engage in a crucial role towards the degradation of the environment in which we live in. Unavoidably, the degradation of the environment is a rising and utmost worldwide subject. I accept that the root cause to environmental degradation is the excessive use of resources on our land utilized by the processes under capitalism. As Jensen wrote in Endgame, “The global industrial economy is the engine for massive environmental degradation and massive human and (nonhuman) impoverishment.

Environmental issues have been a cause of a lot of debate in the recent past. Governments and nongovernmental organizations have been in constant consultations on how to help protect the environment. Apparently, as a result of man’s many actions, the natural environment is getting torn apart so quickly that the coming generations will not enjoy this kind of environment, unless a

The inspiration for this research and the essay was generated due to the issue of rapid and reckless industrialization as well as the inability of the human beings to properly realize the issue of environmental sustainability. The whole world is witnessing a havoc spread of the industrialization in every corner of the world. But, in the attempt to spread the message of modernity, industrialization, and urbanization, the issue of environmental sustainability is not being addressed in a proper manner. As a result, the amount of the forests are continuously diminishing, and it is presenting a potential threat to the ecological and sociological balance of the human civilization. This threat is a real danger to the

Our existence depends on how well we plans and implement policy through international cooperation. As our population continue to increase in the twenty-first, it will provide us with the clue about how we make sustainable plans about our future generation. Our present generation continue to consume more resources than what is presently in production, thus increasing consumption level which have created water shortages, forest depletion for urbanization, more energy consumption, and food crisis, diseases and many more environmental problems. As the result of this, a evolving of transboundary effects of environmental pollution and natural resource management, soil erosion environmental problem and degradation continues to happen as the

Environmental Health should be a global concern because earth is our home. Some of the environmental issues of global warming--global dimming—water pollution, air pollution; land pollution and land degradation are affecting humanity throughout the entire world, these and other issues affects every species on the planet earth. Its imperative that mankind listen to the cry of the environment and begin to work together to save our planet. We can all play a part play by taking concern for endangers species, and being careful not to pollute our
