What Is The Impact That Incandescent Light Bulb Had On American Society?

They have modernized our world in many different colors, shapes, and shades and they decrease fire hazards. It made a great impact, because it gave us light at times of the day when we did not have the sun up to give off the light. If you were freezing, the light bulb actually gives off heat. It helps us see if we do our work at night at about 7:00 or later. We only had to flick a switch and the light is on. How simple is that? We did not 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.

I can give you more if you want but that was my intro for a history paper...

It lasted a lot longer than candles furthering the amount of light there is at night.

Well basically, the light bulb burns for more than 40 hours. You don't have to replace it as much as you do a candle, and it doesn't burn so quickly.

My question was how did the light bulb impact the american society
