This is an awesome documentary, I just saw it this weekend on the History Channel, then liked it so much I had to go out and buy it.  The crux of it is like this: if people vanished from the earth, everything that humanity has built would crumble into nothingness within 10,000 years.

There would be literally no evidence that we had even been here at all.

Metal on bridges and buildings would eventually corrode and the structures would fall.

The houses would all be eaten by plants and termites.

Our concrete structures are made far cheaper than those of the Romans, using too much water and would inevitably crumble. 

Even the messages we beam off into space wouldn't get past the sun.  It truly is food for thought as to the endurance of what we have built here.

The lone exception?  The pyramids would still be standing, but would appear like mountains of sand in the desert.

It's all a propaganda piece put out by the Globalist New World Order to get the dumb masses used to the post eugenics Earth.

They'll have 1.5 million of us living in Roman-styled city-states and the res of us terminated.

Volitzer, did you even see the documentary?  There is no causal effect for the reason why the earth suddenly loses people, it simply shows what would happen to all the crap we built (and domesticated animals) if we weren't there to tend it. Meaning, bridges and skyscrapers would eventually fall down and how the earth would eventually reclain itself.

Great flick!  I recommend it to everyone, too.

Follow the money, you will find the film's producer is a eugenicist.

Plus it fits the NWO's plans to eliminate 85% of us.

Volitzer!

There's no agenda in the film, it is simply dealing with the science related to the building materials that comprise civilization.  See it, then tell us what you think.

The very notion is deliciously ghoulish: What happens to earth if--or when--people suddenly vanished? The History Channel presents a dramatic, fascinating what-if scenario, part science fiction and part true natural science. "Welcome to Earth, Population: 0" is the catchy tagline, Life After People's 94 minutes are so gripping you nearly forget while you watch that you, yourself, will be gone too. It turns out that earth can go along very nicely without us. The hardest part of the special is probably in the first 15 minutes, when pet owners confront what likely will happen to their dogs (thankfully, the show follows those dogs who break out of their houses, and the prognosis for them to survive as scavengers is good). As the fictional days and weeks tick by, the process of nature's reclaiming the planet becomes less grim and more fascinating. The impact of the lack of people will be noticed right away, as most power grids shut down around the planet. The one holdout: Hoover Dam, whose hydro power lights up the American Southwest. Scientists say the dam can continue to operate on its own for months, maybe years, keeping the Vegas Strip alight. Only the eventual accumulation of quagga mussels, an invasive species, in the cooling pipes of the power plant--currently being cleaned by humans--will shut down the dam. Elsewhere, critters and plants will have their run of Manhattan and every other previously "civilized" spot. Inventive photography shows bears clambering out of subway stations, and vines pulling down brownstones, then skyscrapers. It may not be a surprise when the Eiffel Tower and Space Needle meet their eventual fates, but the scenes nonetheless provide a pleasant sting of shock. Life After People is humbling, yet exhilarating. -- A.T. Hurley
