History Channel Presents - Life After People (DVD, 2008)
- in LIKE NEW condition
If humans were suddenly to disappear, what would happen to our planet - the structures we've built, the everyday items we take for granted, domesticated and wild animals, plants, trees? What would become of the things that define our species and leave our mark on this Earth?
Life After People is a television special documentary film that premiered on January 21, 2008 on the History Channel. In the documentary, scientists & other experts speculate about what the Earth, animal life, & plant life might be like if, suddenly, humanity no longer existed, and then the effect that humanity's disappearance might have on the artificial aspects of civilization. Speculation is based upon documented results of the sudden removal of humans from a geographical area & the possible results that would occur if humanity discontinues its maintenance of buildings & urban infrastructure.
Visit the ghostly villages surrounding Chernobyl (abandoned by humans after the 1986 nuclear disaster), travel to remote islands off the coast of Maine to search for abandoned towns that have vanished from view in only a few decades, then head beneath the streets of New York to see how subway tunnels may become watery canals. A visual journey, LIFE AFTER PEOPLE is a thought provoking adventure that combines movie-quality visual effects with insights from experts in the fields of engineering, botany, ecology, biology, geology, climatology, and archeology to demonstrate how the very landscape of our planet will change in our absence.
