Evolutions of Energy: Adapting to Survive

Humanity is currently facing an extinction crisis driven by our own species, akin to historical crises that challenged life. Two billion years ago, early organisms adapted to a starvation crisis by harnessing sunlight, leading to oxygen production which became toxic to existing anaerobic life. This transition illustrates that while disruptions can threaten life, they also foster evolution and the emergence of new forms of existence, emphasizing the resilient nature of life and its capacity for adaptation despite challenges.
