      Oh I think we would make more of an effort!

      It’s difficult to image what we might use instead of electricity to power all the devices that we use today.

      We would learn how to live without it if need be, but knowing the advantages of light and electricity I’d say people would make a lot of effort!

      I remember reading about a story in Guinea where students go to the airport at night to use the lights there, to read their notes. Inspiring huh?

      Definitely. If you could see all the wonderful things people were managing to do with electricity but didn’t have it yourself I’m pretty sure you’d want to get in on it. Even something as simple as having a light so you can read before bed. I’d miss that if I had no electricity.
