Was going to check in with some colleagues in Santiago then saw that this is 600 miles away.

Impressive. Not to go down the rabbit hole, but you see a volcano just pumping material into the atmosphere and it made me wonder how much people can impact climate change when you see that nature can do a fine job of pumping CO2 into the environment by herself.

Then I read the below and was even more impressed:

Because while 200 million tonnes of CO2 is large, the global fossil fuel CO2 emissions for 2003 tipped the scales at 26.8 billion tonnes. Thus, not only does volcanic CO2 not dwarf that of human activity, it actually comprises less than 1 percent of that value.

I just looked out my window and dont see any volcanoes erupting around these parts. This whole climate change thing is overrated.

The speed and force of the eruption material is insane.

From the same link:

In fact, spectacular eruptions like that of Mount Pinatubo are demonstrated to contribute to global cooling through the injection of solar energy reflecting ash and other small particles.

I think it was Krakatoa that ushered in a mini Ice Age just about 130 years ago or so. We could probably use a little of that about now...

for the record i got the commercial where the baby rhino and the goat are pals and the orangutan is hanging out with the dog while oo-de-lally is playing in the background and never made it to the volcano part

that commercial makes me smile
