The main ones I can think of just thinking about this building right now: it allows us to overcome challenges with communication, I would not be answering this question right now if I did not have electricity to charge my laptop and somewhere in the building there is wifi plugged in so I have the internet, the lights are switched on again allowing me to not damage my eyes as I work, My lunch is in the fridge making sure my food can stay fresh until later. We use energy every day and it allows us to overcome so many challenges. If you look around you will see loads of examples of how energy can help us overcome everyday challenges; how many more can you see.

Other examples:
– Helping doctors to keep people under observation and alive!
– Cooking food was one of the key aspects that helped humans evolve from our ape ancestry… Without the energy (fire!), we would have to go back to uncooked food, which is not good for our bodies.
– Illuminating our activities at night… we wouldn’t be able to read anything at night without the energy used in a candle or in a light bulb!… As @Emma mentioned, let us know what other examples you can think of! đŸ™‚
