The new research from Portland State University reveals that human greenhouse gas emissions, totaling 3.6 trillion tons since 1851, parallel the emissions linked to Earth's past mass extinction events caused by asteroid collisions and volcanic eruptions.
According to the study published in Anthropocene Review, the scale of human-caused emissions equates to the catastrophic environmental impacts seen during significant geological events in Earth's history, suggesting a dire need for immediate action to mitigate climate change.
