Alan Weisman on The World Without Us October 2, 2008

What would the earth look like if humans suddenly disappeared? Nationally acclaimed journalist Alan Weisman explores the possibility of a future in which New York City subways fill with water within days and weeds retake the buckled streets of our modern world. In his controversial book, Weisman envisions a human-free Earth thousands of years into the future - a world that looks a lot like Eden.
