Description
The World Without Us by Alan Weisman What if, on the day after humans disappeared, nature took over and immediately began cleaning house? The Earth's cities, once bustling with human activity, would be transformed in an instant. The question is, what would happen to the planet in a week, a year, or a millennium? Would the climate ever recover from human impact? How would nature destroy our cities and plastics? In this thought-provoking book, Alan Weisman explores the future of the Earth without humans. Drawing on the expertise of specialists in fields such as oil production and ecology, Weisman visits places that have been left untouched by recent human activity to discover how they have adapted to life without us. The result is a powerful and surprising picture of our planet's future. Weisman's book is a compelling exploration of the key concerns of our time, revealing the potential consequences of human activity on the planet.
