[https://www.ipcc.ch/report/sixth-assessment-report-working-group-i/ Climate Change 2021, The Physical Science Basis], published by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 2021, defines the industrial revolution as: ‘A period of rapid industrial growth with far-reaching social and economic consequences, beginning in Britain during the second half of the 18th century and spreading to Europe and later to other countries including the United States. The invention of the steam engine was an important trigger of this development. The industrial revolution marks the beginning of a strong increase in the use of fossil fuels, initially coal, and hence emission of carbon dioxide (CO2).’
