I need to do a persuasive essay for my world history class on the Industrial Revolution and i want to know if it makes sense.

The industrial revolution changed society. Its the reason why we're in the society we are in now. Before the industrial revolution, everything was made by hand all of a sudden machines began to do everything. The industrial revolution made a lot of changes in society. Some good some bad mostly bad it was harmful to society b/c of pollution & child labor.

It began in England around 1700's. it started in England b/c they had extensive natural resources. industrialization which is the process of developing machine production.
