Poisoned Atmosphere

Console: event extreme_frontiers.140

Description

… is home to a remarkable species of lichen which expels ultra-toxic molecules into the atmosphere as a method to secure itself against predation.

Studies of the fossil record suggest … once had a diverse range of fauna which the lichen has killed off over time by gradually raising levels of arsenic and thallium in the atmosphere faster than most could adapt.

… discovered only one other living organism, a species of large reptiloids, has been able to survive to such conditions thanks to a uniquely efficient detoxification gland.

Further study of this remarkable organ could yield insights into atmospheric detoxification.
