@gabrupawpixelsThere are still places on earth that no permanent human settlement has ever reached. This atoll has existed in essentially this exact form for thousands of years — the coral reef building the foundation over millennia the sand accumulating from broken coral over centuries the coconut palms establishing themselves from seeds carried by ocean currents. No roads. No buildings. No history of human presence. Just a perfect small world of sand and water and palm that the ocean built for itself and has maintained alone ever since. There are fewer and fewer of these places every decade. This is what the earth looked like before us. This is what it will look like after us. 🏝️💙
