The Gravity light

The gravity light is a device that generates electricity from gravity, Lifting up the weight would only take a few seconds and it power the gravity light for 25 minutes of continues light while the weight descended.  The gravity light has no running cost and it does not have any emissions, it can be used over and over again.  The gravity light is mainly distributed by charities and by people who want to help people in third world countries.  It doesn’t have much of a government back up to help with it.

The Gravity light does not have emissions because it is powered by the kinetic energy that is created by all of the gears on the inside that are moving from the weight that was lifted by human force. For the time being there is only one model that is not a prototype. The gravity light is a decentralized because it creates and uses its own energy. If people use the light it can get used over and over again and it made from recycled materials

1994 North ridge Earthquake

The Northridge earthquake happened in California on January 17, 1994. Although the earthquake had only lasted for 10-20 it had a magnitude of 6.7. Though that 6.7 may not seem so high it was the highest recorded in urban area in North America.  But what really separated this one from the rest of the earthquakes was the two aftershocks, one which was just about a minute after word and the other about 11 house after both of which had a magnitude of 6.0. The after damage was, death toll was 57, over 5,000 injured, and along with property damage was to be more than $20 billion. With that much property damage it made it one of the most expensive natural disasters in U.S. history.
