Thought this was interesting

I don't think I'd mind a world without us. If currently existing humans could get some sort of trade in where they can plop their soul i nto another body, I'd be a wolf. And being a wolf in a world without humans sounds awesome. None of that ecological damage and stuff like that. Plus, I would be a wolf... Wolfy wolf wolf. (I like wolves. They are the only canid species that doesn't scare the crap out of me.)

Being a tad more serious, that article was fascinating. I'd say it was realistic too..

Being a little less serious again (Well, serious enough) I had to be reminded of the virus from 12 Monkeys. If you don't know what I'm talking about, you haven't seen one of the best scifi thrillers of the 90's and you must see it now. NOW I SAY!

Very nice.

I am doing a photo essay now on this theme, i call it the Lost Memories of A Deceased Beekeeper. A world without people would be nice indeed.

For me it's the clean slate we wish we had. To start over with the knowledge to protect the environment and know our limits as a species.

Wow, that was really interesting. I remember learning about the sun's life expectancy, and this is pretty accurate at about 5 billion years, I believe. Excellent read though. I like things that make me think!

The last part is kinda sad lol

 

[TwistedZ]

I liked it

For some reason i cant help but think that this is an incentive for population control, birth control seems ok, but population control seems pretty bad, a lot of documentaries flash around about how good this would be for the earth if humanity died out. However, im going to try to live for some time, i need to do my part to keep head lice from becoming extinct in all seriousness, the book from that website seems pretty good. im considering buying it. thanks for the post.

Eh, if Humans aren't extinct by 3 billion years, I'm sure we'd have several planets if not solar systems, populated with our race. That is, if we're not obliterated by a huge asteroid or incinerated by Aliens lol

 

[Major Payne]

Well it certainly wouldn't be this solar system! Unless we find a way to live with some of the planet's conditions...but doubtful. Harsh weather on our fellow Solar System brethrens

interesting

 

[aleatorystories]

Thats pretty cool and kind of sad at the same time, meaning the amount of time it would take for everything to right itself. Very interesting though

after watching Jerry Springer ive come to the conclusion that the world without people would be lame
