The Earth After Us explores the geological legacy of the human species.
There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground, And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;
And frogs in the pool singing at night,
And wild plum trees in tremulous white;
Robins will wear their feathery fire,
Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;
And not one will know of the war, not one
Will care at last when it is done.
Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree,
If mankind perished utterly;
And Spring herself when she woke at dawn
Would scarcely know that we were gone.
- After Man: A Zoology of the Future
considers the evolution of life on Earth 50 million years after the extinction of human beings.
- The plot of Foundation and Earth by Isaac Asimov (a continuation of his Foundation Trilogy),
includes Aurora, a habitable planet which was abandoned by people for thousands of years. That planet, however, was settled by people, and its limited ecology was maintained by them, leading to its deterioration in the absence of human beings.
There have been several TV specials relating to the same topic:[74]
- Life After People
shows what would happen if humans disappeared instantly.
- Aftermath: Population Zero
is the same as the above, but gives more detail into certain things.
- The Future Is Wild,
while not seeking to explain our disappearance, shows how life on Earth (without humans)
would evolve 5, 100 and 200 million years in the future.

In National Geographic Channel's "Aftermath: Population Zero,"
the people are gone but the traffic jam on the Toronto Expressway lingers, for a while.
Eventually, all that humankind has wrought would also disappear: ashes to ashes and --
as with the Eiffel Tower in the History Channel's "Life After People" -- rust to rust. (National Geographic Channel)
