Can humans survive without electricity

Answer 1

For thousands of years in man's history there was no electricity. Only in the past 100 years has there been electricity. Without it there would be many things we can't do, but there would be plenty we can do. When the industrial revolution first began steam and water power was used to run machines, so machinery could be used without electric power. Our homes would be lit with candles and other things. Put a candle in front of a mirror and it produces a lot of light. Heat and cooking can be done with wood, coal, solar, and gas. Street lights can be lit with gas as they once were in the 1800's. We would have problems with some computers and other devices, but batteries can be used to power them. All in all we would be able to function and have to devise new methods for power.

Answer 2

If by "electricity" you mean electric power, there are many things that can be done without it. Anything that people did before about 1850 didn't need electric power, we can still do.

However electricity is more than power. It holds atoms and molecules together, thus without it there could be no life or even matter as we know it. Everything in the universe would be unbound subatomic particles that did not interact (except by gravity). We obviously would not even exist without electricity, therefore we could do nothing at all.

Answer 3

People lived very successfully without electricity. These people used candles instead of electric lights for example to see at night.
