From poisoned ancient trees to demolished rock formations and vanishing waterfalls, humanity’s destructive tendencies know no bounds. Join us as we count down the moments where breathtaking marvels of nature were wrecked by human ignorance. Whether through deliberate vandalism, carelessness, or misguided policies, these natural treasures paid the ultimate price. Our countdown includes Indonesia’s "Underwater Amazon," the Tree of Ténéré, the Golden Spruce, Celilo Falls, The Senator, the Sycamore Gap Tree, and many more environmental tragedies. From ancient sequoias carved into tourist attractions to entire seas drained for agriculture, these examples show how easily we can destroy what took nature millennia to create. Which ruined natural wonder would you have loved to see in its prime? Let us know in the comments below!
