Being more specific, I basically mean object permanence. It won't cease to exist without humans. Even that mythical Edenic paradise is an anthropocentric concept. Nothing like that existed for the majority of the earth's history, nor did anything like it exist in most regions of the planet. Most known life is optimized for environments that are not particularly human-safe.
