In 1779, Abraham Darby began building the world’s first cast-iron bridge to link a small mining town with nearby factories in the town of Coalbrookdale. Bridge is much more convenient when crossing over a river than a ship. It is much more faster; however, nowadays, building a bridge is really expensive. Railways added a whole new phase to the Industrial Revolution. In 1830, a new track linking the Manchester cotton industry to the port of Liverpool opened to transport goods for export. This was the first railway to link two major cities. Throughout the 1830s and 1840s, the building of rail tracks and strong, iron bridges for new train routes meant that iron production doubled at this time. Railways also helps us today. It is a like mid-range distance travel. It is too long for a car ride but too short for a flight. With quality transportation, there were more people travel on holiday.]]> 2018-01-10 08:16:42 UTC https://padlet.com/nnguyen701/ql3mbic7bh4n/wish/220064368 nnguyen701 https://padlet.com/nnguyen701/ql3mbic7bh4n/wish/220071296 The environment was not really happy with the developments in transportation. More advanced transportation means worst for the environment. The environmental impact of the coal industry includes issues such as land use, waste management, water and air pollution , caused by the coal mining, processing and the use of its products. Air pollution is also one of the problem. Coal and coal waste products (including fly ash, bottom ash and boiler slag) release approximately 20 toxic-release chemicals, including arsenic, lead, mercury, nickel, vanadium, beryllium, cadmium, barium, chromium, copper, molybdenum, zinc, selenium and radium, which are dangerous if released into the environment. The environmental had been affected badly due to coal. That is the price you have to play when you want more money. ]]> 2018-01-10 08:45:21 UTC https://padlet.com/nnguyen701/ql3mbic7bh4n/wish/220071296 nnguyen701 https://padlet.com/nnguyen701/ql3mbic7bh4n/wish/220075391 Economic was also hugely impacted by this. Throughout the 1830s and 1840s, the building of rail tracks and strong, iron bridges for new train routes meant that iron production doubled at this time. Having the production doubled means that the income increased. The people made much more money than they did when the transportation were poor. Not only people made money from transporting goods, train carriers also made money by charging tickets. There were 3 classes. The first, second, third. The first cost the most and it followed through to the third. ]]> 2018-01-10 09:03:05 UTC https://padlet.com/nnguyen701/ql3mbic7bh4n/wish/220075391
