If every human were to disappear from the planet, how would Earth survive without us?
Better than you might think, actually.
In a video produced by #Mind Warehouse, we're shown a simulation of what would happen to our planet if we were to all disappear. It's definitely not one of the more lighthearted YouTube videos out there, but it's a good, albeit depressing, look at how we treat our planet — and how our planet treats us.
24-48 Hours After Humans
*.Lights will have gone out.
*.Nuclear power plants will switch to energy-saving mode.
*.Windmills will keep working until they're no longer lubricated enoughto keep turning.
*.Solar polars will keep working until they are too dusty too function. "A dust layer of 4 grams per square metre [sic] decreases solar power conversion by 40 percent," Dr. Malay K. Mazumder, a leader in solar energy study, told ABC science
*.Power will be cut pretty much everywhere, unless they're powered by hydro electric stations, which would buy more time.
3 Days After Humans
*.Subways will be flooded. There are pumps underground that humans activate to prevent water from seeping in. New York Magazine says, "few realize that on an average day—even when it’s dry outside—about 13 million gallons [of water] are pumped out of the system," and that's just in New York City.
10 Days After Humans
*.Our pets are gonna have a bad time. Any animals locked in our homes will, sadly, die of starvation or dehydration.
*.Any animals that we use as a food source, like chickens and cows, will also die.
*.For animals that manage to escape, they'll either have to kill or be killed. Small dogs and cats will be the first to be eaten by other animals.
*.Big dogs will create their own packs.
About 1 Month After Humans
*.Nuclear power pants use water for cooling, and this water will have evaporated, which will trigger explosions bigger than those at Chernobyl and Fukushima.
*.This will result in the deaths of millions of animals due to cancer (sorry).
*.However, the planet will, overall, actually recover from the contamination fairly quickly.
One Year After Humans
*.Satellites and whatever else we've sent into space will fall. It will look like really cool shooting stars that will be seen only by packs of wild dogs.
25 Years After Humans
*.Streets will be reclaimed by vegetation growing underneath the pavement.
*.Pet dogs and wolves will have mated, creating a new breed of badass dogwolves.
*.The air will besomuch cleaner.
*.Las Vegas will be covered with sand.
*.Basically, nature will reclaim everything that we've built over it
.
300 Years After Humans
*.The Eiffel Tower will fall down.
*.The Golden Gate Bridge will collapse.
*.Anything that's made of metal or steel will fall apart, because no humans are around to maintain the structures and protect them from corrosion. And steel within concrete structures will swell to three times their size, causing more things to collapse.
*.Swamps will make a comeback, thrilling birds everywhere.
*.So much whale sex. Without humans, marine life will expand their population.
500 Years After Humans
*.There will be no trace of modern cities.
10,000 Years After Humans
4. The only sign of human life on Earth will be the stone statues we've created, like the Pyramids, The Great Wall of China, and Mt. Rushmore. Our stone presidents will remain "mostly intact" for "several hundreds of thousands of years," according to #Mind Warehouse.
50 Million Years After Humans
*.By now, the only trace of our entire human existence will plastic bottles and pieces of broken glass.
100 Million Years After Humans
*.The plastic bottles and pieces of glass will finally be gone.
300 Million Years After Humans
*.There will be no trace of us at all. If another species comes to our planet, they won't even know we were there. Source: www.attn.com/stories/8747/what-earth-will-look-like-milli |

Lies!!
The bible says man will return to earth and live for eternity.
Let's say If you don't believe in God but science, you should still know mankind can't extinct due to reproduction except there was an epidemic that will destroy the world at once and that won't happen.
So man ain't going nowhere |

But the question is: when would this happen and what would prompt it? Because it's sure going to happen one day.
So at this juncture, I'll like to give a special thanks to science and modern medicine for making daily strides aimed at effectively improving the average life span of humans, while effectively decimating mortality rates world wide.
Big thanks to natalists out there who bask in the euphoria of reproduction, you guys are so amazing. Your hobbies combined with the massive reduction of global mortality rates, would mean the inevitable exponential increase in population density around the world, which would inexorably lead to global over population.
And thanks to the friction between Russia and the United states, and also the level of hatred North korea has for the rest of the world. All this bottled up tension could one day escalate into a global nuclear war, which is really cool.
Also big thanks to our industrial giants and advertising outfits worldwide for aiding in the increase of green house gases in the atmosphere, through facilitating the use and consumption of products that enable this increases, hence expediting the negative and harmful changes in climatic conditions around the world. And not forgetting our conspiracy theorists who zealously propagate the message that climate change is a hoax. These guys are really an inspiration.
And last but not least, big thanks to our tech geniuses around the world who are working tirelessly everyday to create unprecedentedly smart artificial intelligence that would think for itself, carry out our human activities, and solve all our problems. Yap. All our problems. Including our existential problems. 1 Like |

So man ain't going nowhere Why do you think it can't happen to you? What happened to the dinosaurs? |

What happened to the dinosaurs? Do you believe in God or science? I don't know abt you but as for me I'm Living for eternity with other saints. A dinosaur wasn't designed with a spirit, so how will it not extinct? |
