Volcanic Eruptions and Their Impact on Climate Change
Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis, discusses the environmental impact of volcanic eruptions. Historical examples, such as the 1831 Indonesian eruption and Russia’s Gavastini volcano, demonstrate how ash and gases can block sunlight and cause long-lasting atmospheric pollution. Predictions of future eruptions in regions like Ireland and Indonesia raise concerns about intensified climate change due to reduced sunlight and increased atmospheric soot.
