In 2017 Prof. Stephen Hawking predicted the necessity to leave the Earth within 100 years or less, hoping to find a new planet and let de-anthropize our one, recover its naturalness.
Earth is now abandoned, the climate is heavily altered, nature is recovering its spaces, everything was left as it was at the time of the departure of human beings. Still, the planet is heavy polluted: environmental matrices, objects, plants, insects, sampling media the collected samples show the visible or hidden traces that the human being has left in them, the evident or unseen presence of polluting contents.
