Not dead, simply gone, just like that. How would suburban pets fare without people to feed them? How would the forests, the oceans and the wildlife react if there was suddenly an end to all the hunting, fishing and farming? After being on the receiving end of humanity for millennia, nature would finally be given a chance to take the world back. But how would it work? How long would the skyscrapers and houses last if they were abandoned? Aftermath: Population Zero - The World without HumansThis is a fascinating documentary. It's quite long, but extremely interesting. What would happen if, tomorrow, every single person on Earth simply disappeared? “Aftermath” is the astounding story of a world that humans will never see. The two-hour special examines the impact of human beings on this planet by proposing what the Earth might be like without people.
Oh gosh I watched something like that. I thought it would be interesting but I found it boring. Turns out, if all humans disappeared, everything falls down, plants and animals take over. What a surprise.
Sorry, I don't mean to pour cold water on you!
I don't know why you're apologising to me. I didn't make the documentary. I just watched it. I've no personal investment in it other than I thought it was interesting.
Thank you. I am so tired of being called evil for having a different perspective to someone else. The world today needs to learn to discuss things civilly again, instead of blocking each other over politics or whatever.
Aww, I don't take offence at all. You have absolutely no need to apologise to me whatsoever. I enjoy when people disagree with me or see things differently than me. It gives me a different perspective on my own thoughts, likes and opinions and mental habits. Sometimes, I even learn something new about myself. I've never blocked anyone apart form family members who have been psychologically abusive (or spammers).
I'm apologising because you liked the documentary so much and I came along and said it was boring. Many people take offence when I say things like that and block me/ accuse me of being snooty or whatever. So I'm pre-empting you.
