-It's a very old technology quickly being replaced by newer more efficient technologies.
-The light produced in the bulb is created by electricity heating up a filament inside the bulb creating light. This wouldn't be possible without the bulb however, since oxygen would quickly end this reaction of the filament through oxidation.

How did the incandescent light bulb make an impact on humans' lives?
It made a great impact, because it gave us light at times of the day when we didn't have the sun up to give off the light. If you were freezing, the light bulb actually gives off heat. That way, you wouldn't die of the weather. It helps us see if we do our work at night at like 7:00 or later. We only had to flick a switch and. . . . . .VOOSH!!! The light is on. How simple is that?! We didn't have to make a fire and take hours just to keep rubbing on sticks or search for them. This is how the incandescent light bulb Thomas Edison invented and patented made a great impact on our lives, even today!!! It also gave people more time to be outside because they started to put the light bulbs in street lamps and that lit up the whole street and city.Okay, so did not want to delete your answer, but some of it didnt make sence. The invention of the Light Bulb made it easier to see yes, but also other things. The light bulb does put off heat, but it can not save you from dying in cold weather. That's what a heater is for. But everything else was correct. Thank you.
