This was a screenshot I took months ago while watching a Geology Hub upload on YT. It was a lightbulb moment for my understanding of mass extinction events, (the largest was 250ma). I’ve referenced this multiple times, so thought I might share. Perhaps you find it as interesting as I do.

    Thanks! I’ve always wondered about this. From the comments though, it sounds like there’s a few caveats with what “breathable” really means. Very very interesting.
