I think that English textile factories were bad for the health of the working class families because in Documents A and C it says that Children were getting hurt constantly, were beaten, over worked, and never had time to eat In document C, John Barley was abused and when someone came to interview them, they had to lie about their treatment , he also worked long hours and their breakfast was very little. When Birley was abused, his boss thought he was dead. When he went to go hit Birley, he quickly put his arm up to protect his head and his boss hit him with all his might. John had A broken elbow and marks. He said “ I bear the marks, and suffer pain from it to this day, and always shall as long as I live…” They also never got fed properly
A process called leveling the fields is used to cut the land flat using a laser. Another way humans use water is through industrial use. Industrial purposes use around 6% of water use. Primary metal industries use the most industrial usage of water which is around 254.26 million gallons per day. Some water used for industries and irrigation is obtained through the reservoirs created by dams.
The Industrial Revolution was a point in the mid 1700’s where machine made goods were greatly increased in England. Women working in factories worked in outrageous working conditions, some even fatal. They had short breaks worked long hours and got little pay. The women that worked in the silk factories in Japan had all these cost, but they were just kind of worst. They not only had all this, but they also had unfair treatment.
Working in textile factories was unsafe for working class families because of the work environment they had to work in. Many workers had bad experiences in their time of employment. In the document “Testimony of Joseph Hebergam to the Sadler Committee” it says “Sadler: Did he tell you the cause of your illness? Hebergam: He told me that it was caused by the dust in the factories and from overwork and insufficient diet…”. This quote proves that the factories were unsafe to work in because it caused illnesses and even lead to death.
That water can also be the water that people drink; there were tons of chemicals in it and for people to drink it would be deadly. “In In the Encarta’s artist rendition of the early industrial plant air and water pollution are a key factor, however that factory is in the middle of a town; the noise ‘pollution’ fills the air and can annoy the residents” (Document 3). That factory was placed right in the middle of a town. The noise from all of those machines could keep workers awake at night and then they won’t have as much energy for the next day at work. Not only does pollution hurt people, but poor living conditions and working conditions also damage them just as
In addition, the pollution spread into the water as well, all the waste within the factory had to be removed. Instead of properly disposing of the waste, it was dumped in the rivers. By doing this it contaminated the river, causing people to become ill. “As countries industrialized, they also urbanized. This was a result of people moving to cities in large numbers in order to gain factory jobs” (Document 6).
Consumers in this industry are increasingly interested in purchasing from brands that prioritize sustainability and eco-friendliness. Skims, like many big apparel retailers, is not that transparent about their commitment to sustainability and use of earth conscious materials. As an apparel company, Skims affects the environment with the materials it uses, the waste management of manufactured materials, labor practices, and supply chain management. Unfortunately, the brand does not effectively and sufficiently communicate its labor, sustainability, and environmental policies. Economic factors are in constant impact of companies in the apparel industry, as they affect consumer behavior and purchasing power.
Second Assignment – Annotated Bibliography and Thesis Statement by Cheryl Chi Yue Leung (214185045) York University NATS 1840 15th January 2016 Thesis: How material elements of the modern fast fashion practice reinforce the meanings of unethical production, and thus explain low prices come with low product quality and negative environmental and social impacts Annotated Bibliography 1) Anguelov, N. CRC Press. (September 2015) The dirty side of the garment Industry: fast fashion and its negative impact on environment and society.
From 2000 to 2015, clothing production has doubled from 100 to 200 billion units per year, while the amount of times an item is worn has decreased by 36%, said by Earth.org. Fast fashion has made a huge impact on the environment for decades now and we need to resolve this matter. People purchase clothing without knowing the backstory of how that product was produced and what environment it was made in. Due to fast fashion being cheap and easy to get, people do not seem to care what goes on behind the scenes. Fast fashion affects the environment and climate change massively.
Water Pollution Since Cuba is a primary tourist state with many industries , it creates tons of waste annually. In a year, roughly about 113.5 gallons of seawater are subject to the dumping of agricultural, industrial, and urban waste. Furthermore, 864 gallons of water in lakes and rivers throughout the country is also contaminated. A large part of the contamination comes from the ground after plants and trees have been soaked in fertilizers, insecticides, and herbicides.
Spying, intrigue, and mistrust are apparent themes in William Shakespeare's Hamlet. Each character is intrigued with the lives of the other characters. Spying is a common act of curiosity, which every human experiences, usually motivated by love, jealousy, or concern. Information is often misinterpreted while spying, and could often lead to a character's demise, as shown in Hamlet. In Denmark, everyone is always being watched or sent to watch someone, including Polonius, Rosencrantz, Guildenstern, Reynaldo and Hamlet.
The evolution of fashion industry should be in trend with the technology developments. Technology is the driver of transformation supported by government incentives. The options could be as below • Fabrics used should be new high-tech. Some examples could be nano-tech fabrics and programmable clothing, use of biodegradable non toxic spray-on clothing • Clothes for each could be designed using 3D body scanners which will allow people to “try on” clothes in virtual mirrors and interactive screens • Switching to a “low-carbon” economy based on renewable
In order to explicitly analysis the clothing industry, emphasis must be laid on Textile
Clothing, shoes, towels, dishcloths. The bulk of products made in today’s world have something to do with the textile industry. Point is the fashion, design and textile industry contribute a very large amount of money towards the economy. An excellent way that will contribute to the economy is to produce many more sustainable products that will upsell in the modern market. The sustainable products in the fashion and design industry will allow consumer to up cycle the garments when they decide, recycle and make into something completely new or reuse the product, for example an old towel can be made into dishcloths, rags or dog blankets.
Water is the most important component found on the surface of the earth because it is source of life for living creatures. However, water pollution has become a global concern. Water pollution can have several forms from diverse sources. It is expected that there will be a lack of clean water in next few decades due to pollution. Nile river water in Egypt is the focus of attention of many studies due to many reasons.
