Industrialization can be both beneficial as well as detrimental to a region or city. The jobs that industry brings can improve the quality of life of the workers but pollution and environmental damage bring additional costs. What tools can government use to help balance the benefits and drawbacks of industrialization?

Respuesta :

Industrialization is not only an engine for employment, wealth and technical skill, but an engine for the development of technology.  Modern conveniences, medical advances, changes in lifestyle, education, popular living locations, transportation development, machination - all of these are examples of how industrialization has contributed to widespread and large scale changes to how people live, and how well they live.

It is also probably the single greatest factor for the enlargement of and migration to the cities.  Take the explosion in the US population in the North after 1865, for example, as a direct result of rapid industrial development.
