This moves the date a little bit, but it remains true: Photosynthesis those billions of years ago REMOVED trillions of tons of CO2 from the air, released the oxygen we breathe now ... and killed all of the life that relied on the CO2 but whose life was ended by O2.
I’ve got the original fossils of those clusters at home
OK, good, should now be easy enough to create life in a jar. (note, I am a god skeptic, but that means I am open to a lot of ideas, but will question all of them. I have yet to see a single form of life created in a jar from just raw materials. Nor have I seen a single incidence of one species morphing into another in the fossil record).
Thanks Robert A. Cook, PE.

There’s a punchline in there somewhere.
Worst environmental disaster ever.
