That is true the natural seed bank built up in the soil does allow places to recover but if we wiped ourselves out chances are we’ve made the world pretty hostile for any form of life
I sincerely doubt that. We know that life on earth survived much worse than anything we’ve done or could do any time soon. I’m talking about when huge comets crashed into the earth and boiled all the oceans into steam as well as melted substantial portions of the earth’s crust. Life survived that!
My point is: we should worry about ourselves. Worrying about plants surviving or not after we’re gone is not a compelling case for action. Plants can take care of themselves. They’re way tougher and hardier than we are. Look at places like the Chernobyl exclusion zone: totally overrun with plants.

Right…but we won’t. Fucking single celled shit will, yeah you’re right.
I already said earlier that we won’t. Are you even paying attention?
Can I ask you something? Is there a point to your argument or are you just being a pedant?
