What Would Happen If Humans Disappeared From Planet Earth?

in science •  7 years ago 

When I heard this question, I really found it interesting...cuz I never thought of it before. So do you wanna know what would really happen if we all disappeared from the world? Then keep on reading!

  • After a few hours after we would all disappear, all lights around the world would shut down.

  • After 10 days, farm animals and pets would die out due to starvation and dehydration.

  • A few weeks later, all those adorable small dog breeds would no longer exist as packs of bigger dogs would hunt them down and take them out.

  • One month later, cooling water at nuclear power plants would evaporate, leading to a series of explosions much stronger than Fukushima and Chernobyl disasters.

  • After 1 year, the sky would light up with the thousands of objects we have put in the Earth's orbit as they would come crashing back down.

  • After 25 years, after we would disappear, 75% of the planet's paved city streets and sidewalks will be covered in vegetation.

  • Cities like Las Vegas and Dubai would be smothered in sand as ''the desert would take what belongs to it''.

  • After 300 years, metal constructions like the Eiffel Tower and steel bridges, without maintenance, would fall appart and crumble to the ground.

  • Swamps, that once covered large parts of the world, would reappear.

  • The only evidence of man-made buildings after 10 000 years would be stone constructions, which can last several hundred thousand years.
