The World Without Us by Alan Weisman
Looks to the future to discover what the world might be like, and how it would change, if humans disappeared. This book examines areas of the world that have been abandoned or never occupied by humans to see how they have fared without us and looks beyond to discover for how long, our cities, achievements and mistakes will last after we are gone.
