Enjoy the warm weather now, because if we get another of these huge Earth-zits popping we’ll have Winter up to your necks. Winter kills.

Yep. The atmospheric effects of one large volcanic eruption makes all the man-made pollution since the industrial revolution look like child’s play.

Recent samples should show MMCI 8 (Man Made Carbon Index) causing climate change.

Volcana-geddon is coming, caused by...warmer weather!

[Don Corleone]

"Ice cores contain information about temperatures before and after the eruptions, which allows us to calculate the effect on climate," says Svensson. "As large eruptions tell us a lot about how sensitive our planet is to changes in the climate system, they can be useful for climate predictions."

A volcano the size of the Tabora eruption in 1815, if today, would kill half the world’s population. We’re ill-equipped to deal with “A Year Without Summer”.

So we’re back to the Toba eruption near-extinction event?

(If “science” is truth, why is it always changing?)

[Who is John Galt?]

Using the Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI), which ranges from a low of 1 to a high of 8, the team found 69 volcanic eruptions that exceeded the 1815 Tambora eruption (VEI 7) – an event that was enough to block out sunlight and initiate a period of global cooling.

Wow - multiple episodes of climate change, over a relatively short period of time, none of which were caused by humans. Go figure...

This shows how little science really knows about climate.

We are still just trying to assemble and understand the history.

Lastly, a theory: As the Earth matures, the number of volcanic eruptions decreases, leading to less cooling periods and a warmer climate.

The years 535-537.

Very large eruptions. One in Central America.

[Quality_Not_Quantity]

Climatology, like cosmology, isn't a real science, the hallmark of which is experimentation. In both of these, they're looking backwards in time.

And what real scientist would say, "As for the next VEI 8 eruption, it could be in a hundred years or a few thousand years, according to the researchers."?

Prehistoric climate change. It’s worse than we thought!

Because CO2 is not a pollutant - just a convenient way to curb/tax industrial output.

[Alas Babylon!]

And yet even 60,000 years is but a moment in passing in the 4-billion-year life of the planet Earth.
