You’ve heard it before: we’re well into the sixth mass extinction of life on earth. Only this time, unlike the other five big ones, humans are overwhelmingly the killers responsible. As we continue to set the world on fire, regardless of a certain administration's attempts to pretend it's not happening, scientists warn we are in unprecedented territory that could result in a whole bunch of death, especially for impoverished people in the global south and the ongoing "biological holocaust" happening to nature.
But are we truly the masters of our domain, this little blue planet? And could we really end all life on Earth? What if we dropped every nuke at once? Would that get every bug, including roaches and bacteria?
