    Lord Liverpool‘s government took office in 1812. At this time Industrialisation had already started to take effect which in term meant that workers were slowly becoming replaced because of the new machinery that was coming forward. At this point luddites came forward who were against machines taking over people because they saw the machines as a threat to their living. A reason of discontent here was that the workers who were left over had hard times when they experienced a decline in the conditions that they worked in and also a much lower pay by the hands of their merciless employers who wished to make as much money as they possibly could.…

    Today's news report is on the Luddites. These people called the Luddites are destroying the new inventions of the power loom machines. They are doing this because the machines are causing them to lose their jobs and families struggle to keep up with their basic needs like food and shelter. Since the power loom machines were invented by a man named Edmund Cartwright in 1785, handloom weavers that have worked so hard for many years are getting a lower wage, and some are losing their jobs because they are not needed anymore. This is unfair to the handloom weavers because they need the money that was once provided by their original hand weaving jobs, to support their families. Much of Cromford and Manchester is going into poverty because of this. However, the…

    The history of alternative energy sources has been a long and tried one. Some of the most common forms of renewable resources are; steam, solar, wind, and water. Steam is commonly known for being used in locomotives and river ferries. Kendra Bolon wrote that “steam was conceived as an energy source as early as twenty-one centuries ago by a writer that went by the name of Hero” (Bolon). “Steam Power gained popularity due to human needs that couldn’t be satisfied by animal or human labor” (Bolon). It quickly became the most popular energy source. Steam became increasingly popular in the late eighteenth century and the early nineteenth century due to the Industrial revolution. Thomas Newcomen…

    One of the good things about the industrial revolution was, that they figured out how to melt more iron more quickly and more efficient than before, which led to the creation of a mass of machinery created in the years following. Those machines made it possible to produce more Iron, from which they could construct iron bridges, and soon to be followed train-tracks made out of pure iron. Because of this discovery, both the poor and the rich could travel throughout the country for a rather small amount of money, throughout the country, faster than they could by carriage or by foot. Though because the need for more coal rose, they needed more to dig out the coal from the mines, which made room for a whole lot of more workers, which got more people out of the gutter and into a more civilized community. The demand on workers grew, and got more into work, even children. The problem with coal-digging is, that the men got worn down quicker than normal, which decreased their time on the market as workers, which drew them to the gutter from where they came. Even the work times were off scale, the miners could mine for up to twelve hours a day with no breaks not even a break so they could go and have a meal. So most miners had lunch packs with them, and when there was time, they would eat some of their lunch pack.…
