Volcanic debris changes the climate.
A significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions, such as from burning fossil fuels, deforestation, or volcanic eruptions, could trigger a climate change event leading to mass extinction. This can cause rapid changes in temperature, sea levels, and biodiversity, disrupting ecosystems and threatening the survival of many species.
Evidence suggesting we could be experiencing a sixth mass extinction includes the high rate of species extinction, the loss of biodiversity, and the significant impact of human activities such as habitat destruction, pollution, and climate change on ecosystems worldwide. Trends in population decline and habitat loss further support the hypothesis of a sixth mass extinction event.

The Permian-Triassic (P-Tr) Extinction Event is widely recognised as the greatest extinction event on Earth. It is also known as the "Great Dieing".It occurred 251 million years ago marking the end of the Permian Period and the start of the Triassic Period.It also marks the end of the Paleozoic Era and the start of the Mesozoic Era. Estimates have suggested that 96% of marine species and 70% percent of land vertebrate species became extinct. It is also the only known mass extinction of insect with 56% of insect families and 83% of insect genera becoming extinct.Little is known of the cause of the mass extinction but theories range from meteorite impacts, to volcanism, to sea level fluctuations.
Factors that do not commonly trigger mass movements include gentle rainfall, stable slope conditions, and absence of erosion or human activities.

The effect of mass extinction is extinction, death of a mass
Gasses released by a massive volcanic event can cause catastrophic climate changes. Carbon dioxide will raise global temperatures. while sulfur dioxide will lower temperatures.
Mass extinction could occur due to climate change, an asteroid impact and even a volcanic eruption.
The mass extinction of dinosaurs were caused volcanoes that cause global warming with their toxic gases, therefore, killing the plants, starving the plant eating dinosaurs to death, and with no more plant eating dinosaurs, the meat eating dinosaurs died, too.
There were five major extinction events in the past. They are called the Cretaceous-Tertiary (or K-T) extinction event, the late Devonian mass extinction, the Permian mass extinction, the Ordovician-Silurian mass extinction and the Triassic-Jurassic mass extinction event.

Evidence suggesting we could be experiencing a sixth mass extinction includes the high rate of species extinction, the loss of biodiversity, and the significant impact of human activities such as habitat destruction, pollution, and climate change on ecosystems worldwide. Trends in population decline and habitat loss further support the hypothesis of a sixth mass extinction event.
The dinosaurs fell victim to a mass extinction.
This would be called a mass extinction or mass die off.This would be called a mass extinction.
540 million years ago was the first mass extinction
We are still not sure what caused the mass extinction of the dinosaurs, though an asteroid impact seems to be the popular theory.Scientists believe we may be heading towards another mass extinction event.
