Humam Extinction

July 20, 1969


We no longer live on that Earth
Louisville, December 31
Mozambique,25 January 2022
Of all the species on earth humans have left the biggest mark!
Our grader prints can be found high above the planet empty below it we’ve planted
pave and scarred the face of every single continent but to fully understand the scale
of our impact we need to see what the world would be like without us if we
suddenly disappeared what would happen to our highways the cities rivers our
greatest monuments…

From air pollution in the upper atmosphere to
fragments of plastic at the bottom of the ocean, it’s
near impossible to find a place on our planet that
humankind has not touched in some way.
In 2010, eminent Australian virologist Frank Fenner
claimed that humans will probably be extinct in the
next century thanks to overpopulation,
environmental destruction and climate change.
Of course, the Earth can and will survive just fine
without us. Life will persist, and the marks we’ve left
on the planet will fade faster than you might think.
Our cities will crumble, our fields will overgrow and
our bridges will fall.
“Nature will break down everything eventually,”

CHERNOBIL 2015 study funded by the Natural


Environment Research Council found “abundant
wildlife populations” in the zone, suggesting that
humans are far more of a threat to the local flora
and fauna than 30 years of chronic radiation
exposure.
