Explanation:

The Industrial Revolution introduced new machinery and production methods to the British textile industry, which led to a significant boost in productivity. Steam - powered machinery was a key part of this revolution, not something to be ended. The demand for cotton increased due to higher production, and the demand for textiles grew rather than decreased.
