Various sources, including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, use the year 1750 as a baseline year for the end of the pre-industrial era.[1][2][3]

1750 is commemorated as the year that started the industrial revolution, although the underpinnings of the industrial revolution could have started earlier.
