Some
people
 argue that now is the best
time
 in
history
 to be living
while
 some might think differently. I completely agree with
this
 statement.
Firstly
, with the rise in technology and machines in the
last
 century, I think that
this
 is the best
time
 in
history
 to be alive.
Abundance
Add an article
The abundance
An abundance
show examples
 of resources and the use of these resources have led
humans
 to live a very luxurious
life
. With electricity and computers, we can communicate with anyone we want to in a matter of seconds, we can order food whenever we want and get tasks done without the need for any prior knowledge, making
life
 very convenient. Machines have made human lives easier and reduced the need to do physical work. Improvement in healthcare has
also
 led
humans
 to live a longer
life
 and have increased
life
 expectancy.
Moreover
,
Humans
 have learned how to live in peace with each other since the invention of the atomic bomb.
Lastly
,
in contrast
 to the way we live, there were a lot of wars in the early 20th century,
life
 expectancy was low and
people
 did not have equal rights meanwhile the majority of the work was done by human labour. Plagues and diseases like the black plague which reduced the population of Europe by half were very common in
history
 as not a lot of
people
 had access to medicine and healthcare.
Humans
 did not have access to electricity and had no way of communicating which made it harder for
people
 to communicate and made things more
time
-consuming.
To conclude
, I think that
this
 is the best
time
 in
history
 to be alive because of the luxury we have. I think that everyone should be grateful for being alive in
this
 period of
time
.
