      I don’t! We rely on electricity so much! Think of when there is a power cut, no lights/no technology/no cookers!!

      Well there’s a community of people in America called ‘Amish people’ who live on big areas and do not use electricity or no modern technology and they get on ok?

      However I think as a whole society has benefited hugely from electricity! Think of all we can do today by using computers and the internet, think of how much medicine has progressed since the invention of electricity. Humans live longer, better lives due to electricity so personally I do not think life would be as easy or nice as we have it now without electricity.
