Hi @godwine, it seems we have much in common. The book I am reading, Life Without Us, investigates how the world (planet) would react if humans disappeared all of a sudden between one second and the next. It's fascinating how the world would recover and how long (or short) a period of time it would take to erase the fact we were ever here. If you are interested in that sort of thing I can thoroughly recommend you reading it.

Anyway, thanks for your comments.
