Could Humanity Survive the Next Mass Extinction?
This documentary travels back to three of the largest mass extinctions in Earth's history to ask what wiped out so much life and whether it could happen again. It examines the volcanic upheavals, climate shifts and impacts that reshaped the planet's living world. Drawing lessons from deep time, it considers whether humanity could survive a future catastrophe. Thought-provoking and well grounded, it turns ancient disasters into a serious question about our own survival. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
