An Earth Without People
-Subways would start to flood and sewers may begin to clog with debris.
Over time Manhattan will revert to its old self before humanization.
-When a building collapse, other will too. After ward, seeds will get blown into the "clearing" and take root in concrete cracks. Every spring, more cracks would come.
-Such places where we can observe the possible future after humans is primeval forest in Europe.
Another area is the Korean DMZ where there is a wildlife preserve.
-There were many large species across many continent that are now extinct. Though the cause is argumentative, most evident points toward the arrival of humans.
-We are so focused about the negativity of humans being gone, that we don't realize the somewhat good that can occur from this.
-Humans should find a way to be more in touch with the environment.

The authors main purpose
The author is saying that if there were no people on earth within a few days, drainage and sewer systems would stop working, flooding above ground streets such as those in Manhattan. Power would be shut down completely and at night the planet will be covered in darkness. When one building falls in a major city, it will most likely take other buildings down with it. This will create a clearing area, in this area seeds, may get blown in
or dropped into concrete cracks where they can reach soil. Animals would also thrive due to not being repelled by humans, making them once again free to roam the Earth. It may be hard to imagine a world without humans, but that world is healthier.

What i think
I didnt think that if humans left that everything would go crazy. I thought if we just left everything would be the way it is now, except no technology and stuff. i didnt think everything would flood and buildings would collapse I knew that animals would thrive way better then they do now because us humans kill animals and they cant live without being scared of us. I was surprised when I found out that nature can easily retake its rightful place on this planet, starting at the collapse of the first building.
