There was a roller skating rink called "Sweet Feet" that I had two birthday parties in but it collapsed sometime in middle school and was never rebuilt.
My elementary school closed down a few years back. They had a small reunion with any students that attended before they closed for good. It was a definite blast from the past as there were a few teachers that still worked there and many of my old classmates attended. Unfortunately, I didn’t receive the news until after they already shut down but I was able to see pictures on Facebook.
Spiders are said to eat the mass of the entire human species every year. That's mostly insects. And that's an enormous amount to hand the insect population swell by every year. Of course, it would only increase that much in the first year. After that the growth would probably be exponential, at least until food sources were eliminated. Then the species that depend on those would go the same way, and so on up the food chain. It would probably actually be quite fascinating to see from an external perspective, or to study after the fact.
Very true and underrated. If the conservationists and scientists had the means to control the government, we could find a way to coexist in balance with nature (while keeping many technological creature comforts) basically forever.
There are many ways, it's just that almost none of them are profitable, and even if some of the mare, they're not profitable enough to be worth it to crony capitalists.
Most other currently extant species yes, planet and life in general, nah. There's too many extremophiles out there that prove that even if we make the planet completely uninhabitable by anything even remotely resembling humans, animals, plants, etc, there will still be life in one form or another. Try and imagine what we'd have to do to screw up the planet bad enough that tardigrades would be unable to survive.
This may be a weird answer, but I played Celtic music with the family band as a teenager and our favorite place to play was Santa Rosa Brewing Company in Santa Rosa, CA. Great vibe, good food—I of course was too young to partake of the brew 😉—but it was a lot of fun and we had a crowd of regulars who'd come to see us perform every time. When they eventually closed down, it felt like the end of an era…
