many scientists now believe/theorize that the gigantic volcanic eruptions in India known as the Deccan Traps could possibly have sealed the fate of the dinosaurs before the meteorite even hit earth. they may have spewed out so much ash that the planet went into a "nuclear" winter for a prolonged period, killing off the majority of vegetation the herbivores needed as food, hastening the starvation of the predators. the lava over much of the area is over 2 kilometers deep (1.2 miles thick).Chicxulub Crater. 110 miles diameter and 12 miles deep. Picture the energy released when that monster smashed into earth. Give me 110 degrees in the summer any day
