Climate catastrophe? Iceland Glacier melt Could Trigger Volcanic Blasts, Study Warns
Doug McIntyre discusses research reported by Reuters that links climate change to increased volcanic activity in Iceland. The study suggests that as glaciers melt, the reduced pressure on the Earth’s crust could allow magma to rise, triggering eruptions. Iceland, known for its active volcanoes, has seen eruptions severe enough to disrupt air travel; however, skeptics point out that volcanic eruptions have occurred in the region for centuries, even with glaciers in place, questioning whether the theory accounts for all factors.
