Our current eon, the Phanerozoic, began with the Paleozoic era which was a chaotic and fascinating time for the planet we call Earth. 

There were near constant explosions of life, followed by mass extinctions which were then followed by more life expanding events. 

This very interesting and informative video by PBS Eons will fill you in on tons of fun facts about this wild era in the history of our home.
