The Worlds Biggest Bang

I just wanted to share excerpts from this article that cropped up when trying to locate an article on the recent coal ash spill in the Dan River, North Carolina:

The world's biggest extinction was triggered by a massive volcanic eruption, burning coal and steep increases in greenhouse gases, say researchers at the University of Calgary.
About 250 million years ago, before the age of the dinosaurs, the Permian extinction wiped out 95 per cent of life in the oceans and 70 per cent of life on land.  
Stephen Grasby, a geoscientist with the University of Calgary and research scientist at Natural Resources Canada, says he and his colleagues found evidence of the eruption in the Canadian Arctic. Specifically, they found layers of coal ash in rocks from the time of the extinction.
"It was a really bad time on Earth," said Grasby. "In addition to these volcanoes causing fires through coal, the ash it spewed was highly toxic and was released in the land and water, potentially contributing to the worst extinction event in earth history." 
It took five million years for the planet to rebound and for higher life forms to reappear.
Because of modern science we are able to understand so much more about our earth, AND because of this we are able to be proactive-- in other words we can head off disasters.   The big thing in regards to the above disaster and the one that killed the dinosaurs, is that air had become polluted, and breathing near impossible.  The ash fallout was the bigger killer.  

The only way we could ever survive such a tragic event today, is if we designed our homes and agriculture differently, and as proposed by the inner twin world-- the TUSSH (the Two United Structure System Home), a self enclosed eco system that would enable us to grow our own food, continue to breath clean air, and sit out the danger.   Science enables us to see that Yellowstone park is a "super volcano" ready to explode once again, during it's last cyclical explosion that occurred 500,000 years ago (it blasts every 500,000 years), the effects were felt for thousands of miles around.  Ash is found that stretches that far, and the columns of fossils in one area indicate that after breathing in the corrosive ash, animals needed water, so they all made way to the nearest water supply-- ponds and lakes where they then died... predators and prey alike, drinking at the same source and neither fearing the other because a bigger predator was at bay. Is this what it takes to bring the lion and lamb to lay down together... is this what will wake us and protect us... all living things in the world as we know it... are we meant to be the guardians, working in harmony with nature/god/goddess... and yes, our inner twins and the inner twin world.
