As stated in Industrial Revolution Era, it says “During the half-century around 1900, these public health interventions succeeded in drastically reducing the incidence of water-borne diseases among the urban population, and were an important cause in the increases of life expectancy experienced at the time.” (Wikipedia). In other words, these sewage systems were very important to the people of the Industrial Revolution because it minimized the probability of the people receiving water-borne diseases. This is very important because it shows an effective solution to the problem of living conditions that people had. Without the installment of sewage systems in industrial cities, the problem would continue to grow until it’d affect businesses and the state of the nation, as well as it’s economy. If the workers die from disease, the businesses that are being built on labour would be destroyed and the economy of the country would stay at the level of poverty. The sewage system is a positive effect of the industrial revolution that has greatly impacted the rest of the
