AP European History
Unit 6 – Industrialization and Its Effects
Topic 6.3
What might have happened if coal reserves in Britain were depleted during the early stages of the Second Industrial Revolution?
Britain would invent wind turbines to generate electricity instead of using coal-based thermal plants.
Nuclear power would be discovered earlier as an alternative source of energy.
Solar power would replace coal as a primary energy source immediately after depletion.
Initial industrialization efforts may shift to other countries with abundant resources.
