Description
"A book for middle-school-aged children about previous extinctions and possible threats to humans, from volcanoes, to asteroids, to pollution and diseases"--
Description
Scientists estimate that 99% of all species that have ever existed are now extinct. So it is not unreasonable to predict humans are doomed to become fossil records as well. But what could lead to our demise? Supervolcanos? Asteroids? The sun going dark? Climate change? Humans may be capable of avoiding most of these nightmares. But we're also capable of triggering world-ending events. McAnulty examines the worst-case scenarios that could (but hopefully won't) cause the greatest mass extinction-- our own! -- adapted from jacket.
