What Would The Earth Have Been Like Without Life? 

Hey, could you explore how this Gaia effect might keep life and temperature going after the 1 billion year mark when most scientists think the sun's brightening will stop the carbon cycle and lead to the death of all multicellular life? That is the rough consensus, and it's been covered on other channels, but to see an alternative where the Gaia feedback loops are stronger than the consensus thinks would be nice. Or even speculation on what could change about the Gaia feedback loop to alter the equation, well. other than humans moving the earth or star lifting the heavy elements and helium out of the sun. It is speculative, but exploring the possibilities would be fascinating.

Wow im new here i love ur vids

I love your voice dude, you and fall of Civilizations Podcasts are 100% my favorite narrators

Thank you, History of the Earth!

Well said.

Truly a groundbreaking series. This needs all the awards (Webbies?)

Deserves an award for DECEIVING the people on a grand scale.

@@sykorose1966 In what way is it, as you put it, "deceiving the people"? What are you, one of those religious fanatics who believes that God created everything in six days and rested on the seventh one? What the producer of this fine series has related is verified scientific fact.

Yes

I definetly think they deserve it. But if a somewhat scientific channel grows in popularity the facts will become lose, they start speculating because that is what people on the internet want to see. Sadly you will rarely see channels keeping their attitude after they gained the attention of the large majority. I really like what you guys are doing with your channel, really great work you did your research the editing was great and the narrating was calm but never boring. I really apreciate the content you guys are creating. Keep it up!

I'm just imagining your comment transported to pornhub. Lol 😆

Not so silly once one Realizes the underlying Essence of everything... which IS Consciousness/Awareness ITSELF. From the POV of the rock... not much is happening.. ie: rocks are not too bright... however, from the pov of THAT Vibrating Energy which is choosing to manifest AS that rock... THAT holds all knowledge within it. So... it all depends on which perspective one is able to hold... that of the rock OR THAT of the One who percieves the rock. Everything, at its sub atomic level.. (string theory) is exactly the same... scintillating energy... so, the question begs... what makes some energy manifest as a rock, while other energy ( which is exactly the same) manifests as marshmallow fluff? The ANSWER IS... The non-local/non-physical MIND. It is the Mind, (limited Awareness/Consciousness) which takes pure scintillating, formless Consciousness and gives THAT Form. To put it in other terms... The Mind is the creative tool of "God" / Consciousness / One's own Higher SELF... which is the SAME in ALL. THAT / Awareness which looks out through YOUR eyes is the SAME Awareness which looks out of ALL eyes... and all minds are connected in the Unified Field of Consciousness. To say... we are ALL the *THAT* of I AM THAT. The limiting ego/mind creates the appearence of OTHER, of DIFFERENCE , when from the highest perspective nothing is different from anything else. All arises out of formless Consciousness and merges back into Consciousness. That ONE Infinite Awareness plays a game of Cosmic Hide & Seek with IT's own SELF, in order to have all these various experiences... via the mind, but eventually each mind Awakens to it's TRUE and Infinite Nature. We finally Realize that the one who is seeking IS The ONE Being sought. Ps Religions have not a clue as to the true nature of THAT, all pervasive Consciousness because they are mind dependent and "God" hides from the thinking, experiential mind. "God" / THAT / pure Consciousness IS and always gas been, the ONLY ONE here... playing all these roles, while knowing better than to JUDGE any of it. One could say... we are all the *Dream of God* ... and of course Dream and Dreamer are one and the same. Just something to consider ... or not. The wise always seek the necessary proof since blind faith is foolish and often dangerous. I simply suggest that the necessary proof IS possible if one is willing to seek within.

Life is much more resilient than we give it credit for. Even in our most realistic dire estimations of climate change. Humanity would still survive. And even if it didn’t, life wouldn’t be eradicated. Our planet would certainly be different, but it wouldn’t be devoid of it. Why we should prevent climate change in the worst extent is because it is the avoidable death of tens if not hundreds of millions of human beings.

I agree, and sadly there is a theory that we are I don’t find too far fetched

Something to consider... Although within this so called Physical Universe.. we are IT... still, we are far from alone since we are part of a far greater Omniverse which, though not vibrating at a "physical" level has an Infinite, more expansive "Subtle" reality to it... this Subtle realm vibrates at a much higher level of Conscious energy than our "physical" realm. If our limited senses were re-calibrated to line up with these far more subtle vibrations we would immediately become AWARE of all sorts of subtle BEings.. who are very much AWARE of us. Once our own limited 'physical' senses are finally able to expand into these far more expansive subtle realms of Consciousness.. we become AWARE of all sorts of BEings.. many far more intelligent than ourselves. Might I suggest reading Robert Monroe's FAR JOURNEYS. Note: Although Monroe did not yet Recognize that everything here not only HAS Awareness but IS Awareness / Consciousness ITSELF... still, one has to start somewhere... and Monroe took an excellent first step toward understanding the underlying REALITY of this and ALL Universes.

@Richard Head would be interesting especially since we haven’t had any mass extinctions in forever. Wouldn’t be unnatural just uncommon from our perspective

@@SpookStatik Same, all they'll do is destroy, that's what Humans do DISCOVER AND DESTROY.

@@freeezframes I don’t know if you’ve noticed but animals only destroy and not discover 😂

@@lilpd6207 dude, we're in one of the biggest mass extinction right now

a better place

We haven’t been around for very long

probably the same as it was before us, since we've only been around for about 200,000 years, whereas life has been going on for billions more. that's 3,500,000,000 approximately. it would have ups and downs with its climate, extinction events, all spaced out between millions of years. climate change globally is certainly nothing the planet hasn't seen before, but we represent a very sudden and alarming change. before, climate would change over thousands and thousands of years, perhaps millions. but since the industrial era, 200 or so years ago, we've caused a change so powerful and so sudden that it cannot be compared to anything before our time. this should really be a wake up call for some people, but no.

I've been thinking about how or what we would've been had there not been any life on earth. And I think, we are "here" cause we exist. Had there not been life, and had we not existed. The very concept of us would've never come to being. Not a 100% sure where I'm going with this, but as far as I can think, what would've happened to us had our conscious not existed at all, is either just void, or something incomprehensible to us as of yet

best comment I've ever read

This comment is basically "if there was no water, things wouldn't be wet" Like nothing deep here. No shit if humans didn't exist there wouldn't be anyone to think over the universe and how it works and all our human-made concepts wouldn't exist. But if we didn't exist there would certainly still be other intelligent life elsewhere out in the universe. And science and physics would still exist whether we did or not, because those are fundamental to the universe itself. Even if nobody is there to notice or describe it, doesn't stop it from existing in the first place. And it's not like us being here has revealed everything about how the universe works, still there are mysteries even as those undiscovered rules governing the universe still keep on going even as we are unaware as to how they all function.

A mind is a terrible thing.

@@HistoryoftheEarth He posted this today

This is one of my favourite things to think about. Organisms sustained entirely by chemical food chains, shielded from a dangerous parent star's radiance not by a reliable atmosphere, but cradled safely in the depths of their geologically-warmed ocean home. No matter what size of life we eventually find, the discovery itself is in all likelihood an inevitability.

Well, life could have started in the most perfect pace in the universe, and adapted to nearby areas. Life didn't appear everywhere on earth, it appeared once, in one place, then adapted out in every direction. Adaption of life is impressive, but says nothing about how easy it was to arise in the first place. Life exists in harsh places because it had time to adapt and evolve to them. For life to form in a harsh environment is infinitely more of a struggle then it simply adapting to survive in it.

Life seems to be hard to get rid off when it pops up. But it also seems to be hard for it to pop up at all

Pretty sure they don’t loli

I’ve always wondered if there are beings out there that we are unable to view with human eyes.🤔I definitely agree with your last sentence. There could be beings that aren’t anything like us that could live in complete different conditions.

A point regarding that though we don't know how different life can get. We do know we are here though so it is much more promising to look for something similar to our circumstances because we at least have 1 provable example of complex life (all multi celled organisms)

@@orangesporanges1504 If there is water on planets, there are lives. No doubt, but living differently.

The problem with extremophiles is that they specialised to live in harsh conditions. Its likely early life couldn't live in extremely harsh temperatures or acidic liquids.

That was almost intelligent writing there Walter, I was thinking of your use of abbreviation for "million years ago" where its use is to save time writing it more than once, but then checked your links of source rather than reference and came up with my own hypothesis to explain the ice ages: simply that most of the land mass in the gondwana or pangea era was situated towards the north or south poles and only warmed up when the continents broke up, not smack bang in the middle of the globe as represented by every picture of the time. Sorry, no wiki to cite - its just a thought. Love the vid btw, look forward to the next one!
