Volcano Were Blamed for the Greatest of Earth's 'Big Five' Mass Extinctions - Scientists Might Have Been Wrong

The Permian-Triassic mass extinction was exacerbated by an enormous El Niño weather pattern, adding complexity to traditional volcanic explanations.

Diridon: The future is sidetracked, but still possible - San Jose Spotlight

Climate change is accelerating rapidly, threatening life on earth by the early 2030s.

Urgent global action is needed to combat the effects of human-induced climate change.

The US has a critical role in reducing carbon emissions and leading climate policy.

The upcoming election poses a significant risk to current climate progress.

Ants' fungus agriculture traced back to dinosaur-killing impact

Ants evolved agricultural practices after the Cretaceous mass extinction due to environmental changes and availability of fungi.

Dinosaur-killing Chicxulub asteroid formed in Solar System's outer reaches

The Chicxulub impactor that caused the mass extinction 66 million years ago originated from beyond Jupiter's orbit, according to new geochemical research.

An asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs, not a comet, new study finds

Recent research reaffirms the Alvarez hypothesis, attributing dinosaur extinction to a massive asteroid impact rather than a comet.

Tardigrade Fossils Reveal When Water Bears' Became Indestructible

Tardigrades survived the most significant mass extinction due to their unique ability for cryptobiosis, which allows them to endure extreme environmental conditions.

Animal crossing: How wildlife-safe highways stop roadkill DW 05/14/2024

Roadkill collector Laurie Speakman, aka 'The Moose Lady', helps distribute carcasses to those in need, ensuring no waste.

Roadkill is a significant cause of animal deaths globally, fueling the mass extinction event and impacting diverse species.
