The eruption of the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano has nothing to do with climate change.
Despite some arguments that the two phenomenons are inter-related, there is no clear evidence of the connection.
That’s the view of two renowned geologist who’ve lived and worked in the region for several years.
Even the United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) also noted that volcanic eruptions are often discussed in relation to climate change. This was largely because of the release of CO2 (and other gases) into our atmosphere.
However, it pointed out that human contributions to the carbon cycle are more than 100 times those from all the volcanoes in the world - combined.
**SNIP**
Internationally regarded exploration geologist majoring in marine and economic geology, Geoff Taylor also reiterated Professor Nunn’s sentiments.
“A volcanic eruption has nothing to do with climate change.”
He added that there is unlikely to be an eruption in Fiji as the volcanoes are not active just like the one in Uluivalili in Savusavu with a volcanic crater.
He claims that the youngest volcano in Fiji is near the Savusavu Airport and also in Taveuni which erupted in 500 A.D.

Speculating scientists. You heard it first from the Fuji Sun. Please take volcanos off the list.
this is BS.
the eruption went VERY high, and will
lower the surface temp by an estimated -0.5 C.
Yeah, I guess if you disregard science, you could state that volcanic or similar events don’t cause climate change, and maybe the dinosaurs will buy in on it.
Author asking to be cancelled......lulz. /s
I have no doubt that vulcanism can cause climate change. However, climate change does not cause vulcanism.
YOU have to know where these environmentalists come from through history. The global warmer a$$hats are the same people who in tribal days would offer virgins to the volcano in order to propitiate the voclcano gods.
The only difference today is that they create their own science volcano god, and have not yet got around to casting virgins into calderas, but instead want to sacrifce liberty, freedom and capitalism's free economy instead.
They do have a few women they could cast into Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano. just so the rest of the world can have some peace.
This one would do just fine as a volcano sacrifice:
I have heard seriously discussing the flip argument.
That the volcanic eruptions are caused by global warming!
Somehow the warming puts pressure on the rocks and they erupt because of it!
The alarmist are all into that!
But volcanic releases of Co2 and other gasses - nothing there!
Climate Change has been with us for 5 billion years. The Greenies are just now recognizing what a force it is and want to profit from it.
I think Pelosi and Schumer caused the the eruption. The ONLY way to stop many more eruptions is to throw them into the volcano as appeasement. The left loves appeasement.
The earth regulates itself.
The plate tectonics cause our environment. It maintains the CO2, heat, cooling, and so much other stuff.
People believing that humans can influence that are ego maniacal morons.
Mount Pinatubo spewed more into the air than all of industrialization up to that point in time.
These people are full of it.
LIE!!
Yah, the release rivaled that of Krakatoa. And, this one’s release went several times higher into stratosphere.
However, do any rational and science-based folks ever credit anything spewed out by “climate scientists”? They are as reliable as Pfizer WuhanFlu “experts”.
However, it pointed out that human contributions to the carbon cycle are more than 100 times those from all the volcanoes in the world – combined……… BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAA
I’d love to read the research papers on this …. theory?
The fact that “some scientists” even speculated this makes me glad I am old. The new worldwide cults. Climate change. Covid. Transgenders. All marxist pawns.
