We cannot deny that the development of science and industry help to enhance the society. People are more knowledgeable and educational due to this development; also they have a more comfortable life. But everything that comes into life has two sides. And the bad side of industrialization is sometimes neglected. Obviously, industry is always attached with factories that occupy large areas. Hereby, massive natural resources will be exploited to serve the production; this, inevitably, leads to a depletion. Typically, forest is one of the most important natural resource. It helps to balance the ecosystem and provide fresh air. But because of the industrialization, deforestation becomes a target to serve industry. The lack of trees means decreasing the oxygen and increasing carbon emission, and of course, the pollution is following. Eventually, global warming and extinction is the ultimate result of all the impacts ("The Industrial Revolution and Its Impact on Our
