Feedback comments

Ther seems to be quite a lot of effort put into writing this essay; many of the sentences were logicl, relevant and it is clear you have tried to explain things to put forth a strong argument.

There was however, a few discussions that seemed rather unnecessary, and that could have lengthened the entire essay.

The economic and socio-cultural impacts were not really discussed much at all.
