Disagree on that.

I quite like the products of industrialization.

My machine woven wardrobe, mechanized transportation, temperature controlled dwelling, refrigerator and the internet - not willing to give those up.

Climate change due to industrial emissions and impending ecological collapse leading to food shortages and starvation of most humans?

Disagree on what? That medieval peasants had more work than we do today?

They didn't. We merely changed the work we do. Before, 90% of the population was working to make food. Now it's 3%.
