Global warming to lead to more volcano eruptions, researchers warn

GLOBAL warming could lead to huge volcanic eruptions across the globe which could wipe out millions of people, researchers have warned.

Scientists state that the world is steadily warming, which is leading to the polar ice caps melting.

However, as the ice in the north and south poles continues to melt, this could lead to the eruptions of volcanoes.

This is because ice sheets and glaciers can help to maintain the structure of volcanoes and mountains.

Gioachino Roberti, a PhD student at the University of Clermont Auvergne, said: “Imagine the ice like some sort of protective layer – when the ice melts away, the mountain is free to collapse.

“If your mountain is a volcano you have another problem.

“Volcanoes are a pressurised system and if you remove pressure by ice melting and landslide, you have a problem.”

Throw the ring into the volcano!

Geophysical nonsense.

Can the Bullshit possibly get any deeper?

The magma chamber of volcanoes is so deep it can’t possibly matter what the atmospheric temp is.

Volcanoes are getting more active just like the Word of Yehova said they would in our time.

And the BS is getting deeper also just like the Word said it would.

Who could have guessed?

I know I'm a teen, but global warming is going to cause more volcanic eruptions? Could someone please donate 5 million dollars, so I can prove it does? 😀

Those darned volcanoes. I'm investing in cork. Only way to combat climate change and it will stop all the terrorism also...little walk down memory lane if you can stomach it:

Obama compares climate change and terrorism

“Volcanoes are a pressurised system and if you remove pressure by ice melting and landslide...

This is what passes for doctoral level science today?

Even assuming his ridiculous theory has some merit, melting ice and landslides do not "remove pressure" - at worst such phenomena could be described as weakening the containment vessel.

The core of the Earth has been cooling by some miniscule amount every year for the past 4 Billion or more years.

There’s less energy available in the core than before.

While there may be peaks and valleys, the overall graph of volcanic activity must trend downward.

Chocolate peanut butter/peanut butter chocolate. For the most part, we have little to do with it.

Global Warming = Fairies

[Southack]

Leftists are determined to show that Global Warming can’t be Falsified.

Because they are stupid, they think that is a good thing.

Scientifically, anything that can’t be Falsified, however, is considered a non-theory. Faith. Fake. Unscientific.

So the reality is the opposite of what Leftists believe.

Anything that can’t be Falsified is bad.

More snow: Global Warming.
No snow: Global Warming.

More volcanic eruptions: Global Warming.
Fewer volcanic eruptions: Global Warming.

No matter the results, Global Warming did it... in the addled minds of liberals.

Global Warming can’t be Falsified, ergo it is unScientific.

[Red Badger]

This is a pre-emptive strike in case there is a huge volcanic eruption, so they can blame it on global warming.........................

[Vermont Lt]

I am surprised none of them said that the melting water might put out the fire in the volcano.

While absurd, this is the kind of argument we are going to see next.

[Don Corleone]

Is there anything Global Warming can’t do?

Shut up libs.

[Political Junkie Too]

In related news, daily cyclical temperature reductions could lead to more nighttime.

All that snow and ice on Mount St. Helens didn’t do much good, judging by the results.

[unlearner]

Volcanic ash would cause global cooling.

Throw the ring into the volcano!

Throw Debra instead,
works every time.

Well, “they” are persistent, if nothing else.
