Will Italy be charged by the EU for causing pollution?
Oh no. Global warming.
The climate change cult members need to throw themselves into the volcano as a sacrifice to their God Algore.
Despite all the ash and holiday interruptions, it is quite beautiful.

Unless I am mistaken, Campi Flegrei (just north of Etna and west of Vesuvius) is a dormant super volcano like Yellowstone
Visited the upper most crater while stationed there in the ‘70s. Took the family many years later and was only allowed half way up. Not sure how far up they’ll allow you to go now (in a non-active period), but will worth the visit. Probably as close to a lunar landscape as you can find on planet Earf.
Please let Taormina be OK.
I have a cousin in Sicily who just died from cancer. I wonder if this is him letting his family know he made it to Heaven okay...
Mount Etna: New 4.8-magnitude earthquake hits Sicily
A 4.8-magnitude earthquake has hit Sicily near Europe's most active volcano, Mount Etna, injuring at least 28 people, Italian officials say.
Ten people were taken to hospital suffering from light injuries caused by falling debris.
Some buildings were damaged in what was the strongest in dozens of tremors since Etna erupted on Monday.
Volcanic ash had earlier covered nearby villages and Catania airport had to temporarily suspend operations.
The earthquake struck at 03:19 local time (02:19 GMT) on Wednesday near the municipality of Viagrande.
In the village of Fleri, an 80-year-old man had to be rescued from his home. A local church was also damaged.
