Summary: What happens if we disappeared?
Comment: Well, after the atomic plants blow up and many of the pets die off and the cars stop running, things start to get wild. Really wild. Trees take over, cities become cooler, the oceans start to fill up with fish. National Geographic really hooked me, with great effects, real animals like tigers running about, and just a really cool ride. But it also shows us that, with a little more work on our part, we may be able to correct some of the damage we've done to our own planet.
The more we understand about how the Earth works the more we can do to help it. Maybe clean up the oceans, the atmosphere and the land without having to die off first. Give a hoot.

Summary: Truth is scarier than fiction
Comment: These days, with so many people on the planet, there have been many a day when I thought that there were simply too many of us, and how grand it would be if a good many simply disappeared into thin air. However, after viewing National Geographic's "Aftermath - Population Zero", I realized just how devastating, and deadly, matters would quickly turn out there should the on-going maintenance of key places on the planet cease even a short period of time.
Intentionally or not, humans have set-up shop here on this planet in such a way that should a large proportion of us suddenly disappear due to some unforeseen event the demise of the remaining survivors would be sudden and swift.
Once this dvd starts it will have your attention and you will learn a great deal about things that you had not even considered before. Unless you're one of those who believes that ignorance is bliss, the small price you pay for owning this dvd is worth the knowledge and insight it offers in return.

Summary: Pondering a future without us...
Comment: I had seen the History Channel's offering on this subject, and found, while it was informative, it still left much to ponder. This was somewhat better as it covered much of what was likely to happen if things were left running.It did make a salient point. It showed how the environment is affected.

Summary: 'Aftermath: Population Zero' similar but BETTER THAN 'Life After People'
Comment: Aftermath: Population Zero (National Geographic Channel)
is similar to
Life After People(History Channel)
Although 'AfterMath: Population Zero' is basically the same thing as Life After People, Aftermath is presented MUCH better.
'AfterMath: Population Zero' had realistic animals instead of the complete CGI that 'Life After People' had.
I thought both were fascinating, just that Aftermath was done better.
:)
Customer Rating:
Summary: Duplication and Deceit!
Comment: This is just "Life without People" in a re-packaged form. What a waste of a red envelope. If you have seen or own that, then don't be wasteful with this. How dare somebody rename some stuff they already made and then portray it as something new! Someone should contact the Better Business Bureau about this! For shame!
