Nobody would steal a beautiful picture of the soggy outdoors would they? ........................................................They would!

Sounds like a bluegrass band.

Alot of my ancestors got lost trying to find this place. My family were always very literal people with bad hearing. Damn hairy tub-man.

Dont know about the wood but the steel is gonna be there a couple of centuries.
RedDwarfIV
Concrete structures potentially far longer, assuming they contain no rebar.
Klaaism
Looks like Oregon. I give it a few decades.

I bet this smells amazing

Such a weird and completely true comment.

Definitely

Creosote and moss.

Found the doggo.

Would probably be surprised how quickly the Earth could take back it's own were there no humans
AerosDrawings
The earth is not fragile. We humans are. We're fucking ourselves over big time and ultimately will not be missed.
Klaaism
Its a daily struggle for an massive force of landscapers, keeping the green at bay.
Lucidacide
If humans suddenly disappeared, plants would take over. The nuclear ones.
Zipp4Real
Oh yes. Especially in tropical climates. Saw a bridge that had a tree growing on it in the middle of a super buissy train space in tokyo.
Zipp4Real
Couldnt have been older than two years considering how well used the rails are and space is in extreme need.

NothingButGoodVibes
Yeah because humans are taking the earth away from itself.

At least we'd still have an ocean full of plastic garbage to carry on our proud legacy!

Humans are part of the nature too though
DickPicEnthusiast
That's why we have to burn more fossil fuels, so that mother nature learns her place, and that we leave a mark.
sunyudai
"Her place" would be "smiting us" in that context. I'd rather she not.
rvcaptn
what was the name of that show about that
iamjackscompletelackofcompassion
Life after humans
CocaineAndSelfPleasure
There's also a really good book called the World Without Us.
Gravevoid
Life after people.
i5trucker
There was like a 5 part special and a show called life after people. The special was better narrated and more information but they were same
Klaaism
Aye saw it on the History Channel.
PleaseRespectMyAsshole
Yup. I watched that one. They said it wouldn't take long for cats to take over. Lol. They are just biding their time....
i5trucker
Yea it said cats would go primal and hunt and stuff and doggos would most likely go extinct with no humans to feed them
BishlamekGurpgork
Meh, cats are loners and dogs are pack animals. Cats will do better on their own, but dogs have the pack instinct to support each other.
Drbubbles47
Don't forget about all the poor doggos locked in houses/chained in yards and can't escape
Evanrudeplz
The misconception about global warming is that our earth is in danger. Mother nature was, is, and will be. It's more about how we'll cope 1)
BishlamekGurpgork
Nah. HUMANS are in danger. Nature'll be just fine. Maybe not every individual species of it, though.
Evanrudeplz
with our destruction when we make it uninhabitable. 2)
Arcanum3000
It won't even be uninhabitable for us. A lot of shit will change and do a lot of damage to modern society in the process.
sunyudai
We're not threatening all life on earth, just life as we know it. Losses of habitat, biodiversity, and climate shifts faster than...
SithElephant
The notion that Gaia is real is dangerous. Experimenting too far with climate risks another global extinction like the oxygenation.
SithElephant
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Oxygenation_Event - Nearly all life died. It may happen again and everything which breathes oxygen dies.
sunyudai
evolution can adapt to (in most cases) will result in a very different world. How much damage we do impacts out own odds of survival.
SithElephant
Venus may at one time have had life, also Mars.

ThisOneTimeInZelda
There is abandoned rail road North of Portland OR that is like this not sure if this is the same one though.
Adin1
Now I'm confused because north of Portland is Vancouver, are we talkin about Columbia City Deer Island area?
ThisOneTimeInZelda
I said north of Portland just as in general. To be exact it's Northwest of Portland out past Hillsboro on highway 26.
toddthewee
Some sections of the old line to the coast look like this. Is that where these were taken? The E/W line in NoPo is still in use afaik.
ThisOneTimeInZelda
The place I know is heading out to seaside I think the town is called timber.
toddthewee
Right! West of Portland. Very west. Sort of north-ish, I suppose. There's a plan to turn that line into a walk/bike trail to the coast.
Adin1
Okay, Banks to Vernonia Trail, I look pictures on my profile of that place I love it, and yeah very very West,
