SETI Institute<p>In the first episode of The Climate Chronicles' second season, Escaping the Pleistocene, Professor Dagomar Degroot describes the two biggest explosions in human history: the catastrophic eruptions of the Los Chocoyos and Toba super volcanoes about 75,000 years ago. These cataclysmic blasts chilled the Earth—but recent research suggests that, against all odds, most of our ancestors survived unscathed. </p><p>Listen here: <a href="https://theclimatechronicles.com/2025/02/18/episode-7-avoiding-the-apocalypse/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">theclimatechronicles.com/2025/</span><span class="invisible">02/18/episode-7-avoiding-the-apocalypse/</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/podcast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>podcast</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/scicomm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>scicomm</span></a></p>
