What the Earth would look like without people... supposedly. The author contends we'd be forgetten relatively quickly, assuming we were all whisked away in a sudden alien capture. Why would the effect of other individual creatures' disappearance be considered disastrous, but ours as aclimactically mild? Is it perhaps a hidden arithmatic of next-best analyses? The consequences of our disappearance compared to the effects of our presence might seem mild in contrast to the elimination of the helpful paws of "non-meddling" creatures...

 

It might be hard to Nuke' these bacteria. They survive kilometers underground and essentially harvest the chemical products that result from radiactivity emitted by Uranium deposits. Instead of harvesting radiation from the sun, they get it from the Earth, and thus enable an entire ecosystem of bacteria to survive off their waste products, because they've evolved to use chthonic radiation. May the biosphere grow on!
