The Voluntary Human Extinction movement advocates for the eventual disappearance of the human race to prevent endangering more life forms and allow the ecosystem to heal. They promote stopping reproduction as a simple course of action and have two types of supporters: volunteers and proponents. The movement is difficult to ascertain in size and scope. […]
Hardening is a rapid cooling process used in material processing to prevent phase changes and improve durability. It can be done with air, liquid polymers, oil or water, but can cause warping and cracking. Safety precautions are necessary during the shutdown process. Hardening is a phase of material processing in which the material undergoes very […]
The Holocene Extinction Event is the ongoing extinction of animal species due to human activities. It has two main pulses, one from 13,000 to 9,000 years ago and a recent one since 1950. Many species became extinct due to human activity, and the current rate of extinction is several hundred times higher than usual. The […]
Extinction is the termination of a power, contract, property, or right under the law. It can occur due to various reasons, including the passage of time, satisfaction success, and events. Once the extinction has taken place, it is not possible to go to court. It is important to pay attention to situations that could lead […]
The Permian-Triassic extinction event, known as the Great Death, was the most severe extinction event in Earth’s history, wiping out 90% of species. The event was caused by a supervolcano eruption that formed the Siberian Traps, which caused global cooling and disrupted Earth’s life. The mass release of methane clathrates from the world’s oceans caused […]
Most dinosaurs, including all vegetarian ones, died out during the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event 65.5 million years ago, likely caused by a 6-mile asteroid impact. The impact caused acid rain and killed off many plant and animal species, leading to the rise of smaller, warm-blooded animals. All but a few dinosaurs that would later become modern […]
The Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction was caused by a massive asteroid impact on the Yucatan Peninsula, killing off all non-avian dinosaurs and devastating life on land and sea. Birds and mammals thrived in the aftermath. The Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event was the second largest mass extinction of all time, but substantially closer in magnitude to the third, the […]
The Triassic-Jurassic extinction event 200 million years ago caused the extinction of 50% of all species, including many marine and terrestrial animals. The cause is unknown, but hypotheses include volcanic eruptions and meteorite impacts. The event paved the way for dinosaur dominance, but if therapsids had thrived instead, mammals could have evolved much earlier. The […]
