Siberian Traps - and More!

The Most Devastating Volcanic Eruption

A corespondent has brought THIS VIDEO to my attention. It is all about the Siberian traps and other Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and the consequences for the world. I am not sure whether to be depressed by the horrific consequences or optimistic because what is happening now is not as bad - at least, not yet.

There is a SECOND PART concerning the causes of these vast eruptions - mantle plumes.

There is a vast amount of information within the videos and they are well worth watching. A tip - turn off the subtitles, they often hide information on the screen.
