“The eruption happened about half an hour ago. There are a lot of people out in the streets, many heading to the gas stations to fill up on gas,” Derek Way, a resident of Puerto Varas, told Reuters.

No, if we crippled our economy with high energy costs and transferred our wealth to turd world dictators, well, it wouldn’t stop, but the watermelons would like it.

how can we blame it on anthropogenic causes now? Because fracking excarbates fault lines and by extension of the same logic volcanoes.
Goes straight back to the Koch Bros, George W. Bush, Cheney and Halliburton. Fossil fuels!

The increasing movement of the magnetic field follows the increasing movement of the outer core and mantle. Anyone spotted magnetic north lately (must be accompanied by year of spotting and credible source)?

The resultant spike in planetary CO2 will be falsely attributed to SUVs and coal plants.
