What if one day,we got no electricity.Can you live your life without computers,cellphones,machines and other things?and go back to the normal way as before?...
Well me?.i think i can live without it.Here in the Philippines.when i came here.Its like your back into the past.Some people really uses pots and coal to cook their food.And they wash with their hands and a bar of soap.Work hard in the ricefields without machines,I even tried it.Its fun,but it takes you more energy.Im happy so long i can be with my friends and family even if there is no electricity you can still communicate.

Well it is hard to imagine if we got no electricity ,because we use such a list of electronics in our daily life that even a single day if we not got it then it will be a situation of 10000 years back and we will communicate to each other by only letters .

So many people say they could but if we never have had it then we would be ins ome bad situations.
Alot of medicines would not have been created and the world as a whole would nopt be the same.
When you go to hospital they would not be able to help you nearly as much as they do just now.
I think this is just too crazy to consider and no one can really say that they could survive without electricity.

I don't think I could survive without it. I have often had to manage for a couple of days when the powere lines were down, but it nearly drove me crazy. I was boiling water on the open fire and my pots turned all black. There was a smokey taste off everything I cooked and I ended up dumping it in the bin. I hope I never have to go without it again.

I think i could. It would suck, but i really think i could. My grama lives across in mexico, and when we go to her house sometimes, we dont' even use electricity at all. except for cooking, but they do gas cooking and even use their barbq pits a lot to cook some stuff. i think i need electricity for my computer, for heat and for ac, besides that though, i should be okay without it.

i can live without electricity as long as there are water supply, it would be sufficient for me to live. i can use water to plant vegetables and eat it. i will have to use the old method, using coals and pots to cook foods. that's what we sometimes do in cavite, at my mom's place.

It would be difficult to live without electricity in my country. Everything is set up to use electricity from the houses, work, food, cars, etc. I guess we could survive but things would have to change like transportation and how we get our food. Doesn't sound like fun!
