About This Project
Earth is currently experiencing a mass extinction directly caused by human activities. Furthermore, climate change continues to be denied by U.S. government leaders as well as by gas and oil companies which have collectively spent more than $500 million lobbying against climate change legislation. The goal of my research is to use the fossil record to very cheaply study the effects of mass extinctions on the diversity of our fishy ancestors.
