An example of persuasive essay

Write an article for your school magazine with the title " Why I'm not a fan of industrialization?"

Industrialization is a phenomenon that influences our lives every day and we don't know how.

Probably most of us believe that industrialization has brought just positive things, such as better transports, better products in less time......a modern society!!! But are we sure  all that is positive?

Our nature has been disappearing, everything has been changing. We don't have a place in the world that isn't polluted.

What we have created has been destroying us! Is that really necessary? Do we need all that technology to live? Do we really need to destry our world? Ourselves?

Pollution has been taking over our world, changing everything.

Summer is winter and winter is summer, autumn and spring don't exist anymore. The weather conditions are unbearable and nature is revolting against us.

We are obsessed with technology and we've forgotten howthe countryside with a lot of trees and plants and flowers is! We can travel around the world in a minute but we only see lots of fog and mist, because the best and biggest cities in the world are just surroundes by heavy smoke.

I'm not saying that industrialization doesn't have any benefits, because I know that it would be a lie. Maybe our lives are longer now thanks to it, but how long will it last?

To sum up, I think that one day all that will have more drawbacks than benefits and we will regret destroying the environment.

Why I'm not a fan of industrialization.

I'n not a fan of industrialization because I think that people lived better in the past than they do now.

First of all, industrialization has increased pollution and as a result also the level of mortality because everyday we breathe dirty air. A lot of people that live near industrial areas are ill or their children are born with illnesses. It isn't right that people have to suffer because of industrialization, while other people get rich thanks to that!

In the second place for many years and also today, somewhere in the world, businessmen and factory owners use children and women to pay them less than men. So a lot of children have been deprived of their childhood and that still happens nowadays in very poor countries and no one does anything.

Furthermore, industrialization has increased the number of the unemployed, because their jobs have been replaced by machines so that the employers don't have to pay their employees and workers!!!

In conclusion, I'm sure people lived in better conditions when they weren't any factories and huge capitals to be invested on new, thighly technological companies.
