Question

Why do some scientists think that the End Permian period may be a good, albeit extreme, analogy to present-day climate change? Do you agree that this is an appropriate comparison? Why or why not?

Answer 1

Explanation:

During the ending of the glaciation period , the latitudinal climatic belts had developed well and climate was getting warmer. But at the end, there was extreme hot and dry condition that was a threat to marine and land based life. But the best thing was that there evolved diversity in terrestrial life and Pangea had lots of variety of species on it.

But we can not consider it similar to the present day climate since the present day climate change is occurring more because of human activities and is not natural. The climate change in that period was due to internal and external natural factors on the earth since human had not evolved that time to disturb the nature.
