My environmental biology teacher repeatedly said this and I've echoed it a million times: the earth will survive us. Sure, we'll probably destroy each other because we can't even vote properly, but once we're gone the planet will grow over our civilization, heal and repair itself. Have you ever seen that show Life After Earth? That shows what it will be like once we're gone and the planet forgets that mankind ever existed.
Not convinced? Check out these photos of the world moving on without humans. There's a tree grown right around a bicycle, overgrowth over a train track, ghost towns... The caption of the slideshow says that the photos prove that nothing is more powerful than Mother Earth and I am inclined to agree.
Have you seen any other cool photos like these? Share them in the chat.
