    I would use my 24 hours to try to show him the duality of our nature - the yen and yang. We are violent and destructive, but we are also peaceful and creative. Maybe if he sees our good side, he would help us tame our bad side.

    I'd start with the classical arts: poetry, dance, music, painting, architecture, and sculpture

    Melodies from the world that evoke our emotions - lullabies, symphonies, national anthems, movie soundtracks, operas, and Justin Bieber

    Masterpieces from the world like Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel, Van Gogh's Starry Night, Renior's Moulin De La Galette, Botticelli's Birth of Venus and Collidge's Dogs Playing Poker

    I'd share how we live. Everything from cooking - the art of baking...the thrill of grilling...distilling (I wonder if aliens get drunk. Let's give him alcohol. ) - to family traditions, vacation plans, ceremonies, weddings, funerals

    I'd show our daycares with all the cute babies and our schools and universities - show how humans are always capable of growth and learning. (Offer him more alcohol...)

    I'd show him the movie ET and teach him a drinking game - Each time someone says 'Elliott' we'd have to do a shot.

    ....and I'd show him porn...all the porn...well maybe not the 50 Shades / BDSM stuff...

    I would go all 'Captain Kirk-sleeping-with-the-alien' on him since he is kinda red hot and horny with a dangerous bad boy vibe - NOT because I'm going to enjoy it! But, You know, to totally save the planet.

    I'd tell him I loved him.

    I'd either wake up the next day with alien babies cracking out of my chest OR he'd be gone leaving just a pillow note saying it was fun and he'll call sometime. Either way I think Humanity lives. #You'reWelcome

    You forgot the duality of getting cheesesteak wit or witout.

    I would point out the irony of destroying a destructive and violent race with the use of violence. I'd then seal the deal with oreos and pop tarts.

    Tell him "we are well on our way to destroying ourselves why wast the time and materials doing it yourself? With your advance technology you probably live longer so in a blink of the eye we will be gone." If that doesn't work show him how to crochet then strangle him with said scarf. If I'm going down I'm taking at at least one with me.

    what do you do to convince the alien race to spare our planet and save every person on it?

    Do aliens have boobs?? If not we line up a bunch of women. Boobs always seem to render men unable to function

    this particular alien race is at an evolutionary dead end. they are the last of their kind and will not reproduce anymore. and so they cannot be tempted by your womenly wiles.

    the alien overlord is technically a "he". he also happens to sound exactly like Charles Dance from Game of Thrones. if anything, you'd be the one who is seduced.
    We should show them that the joys of our womanly wiles are not simply for reproduction on our planet.

    basically- they've bred beyond the point of sexuality.
    Mmm bread, we should give them bread!
    God no!!!!!!!

    You keep your bread hater ways to yourself or I'll offer you as sacrifice.

    The premise lacks logic.. what is Maleficent ( IE Angelina Jolie) going to do? come umpteen light years to threaten 7 billion+ hairless apes without a unified leader? with 24 hours left on the planet, I gather the family, have a nice dinner and pop champagne. stop at the local convenience store for a pack of cigarettes... then open my best bottle of Chateauneuf du Pape. sit on the porch with a big glass ... light up a smoke and reflect on my life.

    ANY alien presence in the universe that could make the trip would be so vastly superior they would hardly provide an option. The only reason to embark on a journey from one "system" to another would be to acquire resources. to that end 7 billion hairless apes at between 120 and 300 lbs... would probably fill their freezers quite nicely.

    Consider this: what if they had infertility issues and needed us to procreate?
