1 - Life After People - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_After_PeopleLife After People is a special feature on the History Channel in which scientists and others speculate what the earth, animal life, and plant life might be like if humanity no longer existed, as well as the effect humanity's disappearance would have on the artificial aspects of civilization. Speculation is based upon documented results of the sudden removal of humans from an area and the possible results which would occur should humanity discontinue its maintenance of buildings and urban infrastructure.
2 - The World Without Us - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World_Without_UsThe World Without Us is a non-fiction book about what would happen to the natural and built environment if humans suddenly disappeared, written by American journalist Alan Weisman and published by St. Martin's Thomas Dunne Books.[1] It is a book-length expansion of Weisman's own February 2005 Discover article "Earth Without People".[2] Written largely as a thought experiment, it outlines, for example, how cities and houses would deteriorate, how long man-made artifacts would last, and how remaining lifeforms would evolve. Weisman concludes that residential neighborhoods would become forests within 500 years, and that radioactive waste, bronze statues, plastics, and Mount Rushmore would be among the longest lasting evidence of human presence on Earth.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Future_Is_WildThe Future Is Wild was a 2003 joint Animal Planet/ORF (Austria) and ZDF (Germany) co-production, which used computer-generated imagery to show the possible future of life on Earth. The seven-part television series was released with a companion book written by geologist Dougal Dixon, author of several "anthropologies/zoologies of the future" such as After Man: A Zoology of the Future, in conjunction with natural history television producer John Adams.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/After_Man:_A_Zoology_of_the_FutureAfter Man: A Zoology of the Future (1981) is a 1981 book by Dougal Dixon. He presents his hypothesis on how the fauna and geography will change 50 million years from now. Several other books have been released and internet sites created with this thought in mind. Paleontologist Peter Ward wrote another book on a different perspective on future evolution, one with humans intact as a species. This book is called Future Evolution. Dixon's later work Man After Man also includes man. In 2002, a program on Animal Planet called The Future Is Wild advances further using more precise studies of biomechanics and future geological phenomena based on the past.
