If humans never came to exist, what would our planet be like? 

Imagine if it was possible to rewind the last 125,000 years of Earth’s history, and we were able to remove our Homo sapiens species from it. 

What would planet Earth be like if Homo sapiens never populated the lands?  The industrial revolution would have never taken place. Even Dodos might still be around.

Without humans, planet Earth would look very different today... or would it?

In this video by New Scientist, they do exactly that: rewind time, painting a picture of Earth without any humans.
