if there was a button that would make all humans vanish in an instant without anyone being the wiser, I would press that button without hesitation or remorse. think of a world without humanity. what paradise that would be.
I think of this quite often. Perhaps not as an intentional decision carried out by myself, but more along the lines of an extreme environmental event; such as an unforeseen comet/asteroid/meteor impact, supervolcano eruption, massive methane release into the atmosphere, a runaway extinction, crippling mass ejection of solar plasma, or some other as yet unimagined event triggered by our own ignorance.
It’s funny, I’ve had the same thought. Like if the world were to end (nuclear disaster, hit by an asteroid, or some other major world disaster), I’d be completely fine with that.
