Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki erupted on Tuesday and Wednesday (June 17 and 18), unleashing gigantic ash plumes and showering villages with volcanic debris.

A volcano in Indonesia sent gigantic ash plumes into the sky during two eruptions on Tuesday (June 17) and Wednesday (June 18).

Mount Lewotobi Laki-laki first erupted at 5:35 p.m. local time (5:35 a.m. ET) on Tuesday, unleashing a mushroom-shaped ash cloud measuring more than 6 miles (10 kilometers) high, Indonesia's Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources said in a translated statement.

The cloud was visible up to 95 miles (150 km) from the volcano and showered nearby villages with debris, according to the statement. The eruption was accompanied by rumbling, lightning and thunder, which is typical of explosive eruptions that spew enormous amounts of material, officials said.

“Global Cooling here we come!”

Sure enough the ash will block out the sun, but we’ll never know what happens because we’re all gonna die first. The amount of CO2 released from the volcano explosion is immeasurable and we will all die from burning up and never know. ;-)

So is that the end of the world????

How much Co2 has that volcano put out?

How much Co2 is that volcano going to put out in the near future?

There may be only hours left to save the world!!!!!
