The new special exhibition at the Museum Ladin Ciastel de Tor in San Martino in Badia (BZ) offers a fascinating insight into the largest mass extinction in Earth’s history and draws parallels to today’s climate crisis.
Around 252 million years ago, massive volcanic eruptions in Siberia led to a climate catastrophe that caused the mass extinction. Visitors learn how marine ecosystems responded to extreme conditions and the effects of carbon dioxide release by the Siberian Traps.
Alarmingly, humanity today releases more carbon dioxide than the Siberian volcanoes did during the mass extinction period. The exhibition shows how our behavior affects biodiversity and environmental resilience and what each of us can do to reduce emissions and promote a more sustainable future.
By linking past and present, the exhibition provides a powerful call to action and emphasizes the need for global efforts to avert the worst impacts of climate change.
