This Link shows 1,300 tons of CO2 per day is being emitted into the atmosphere by the renewed volcanic activity near Mammoth Mountain. There are large areas of dead pine trees where the ground has very high levels of CO2 and it is also killing the burrowing rodents.

I wonder if this will blow in the next 50 years.

Cheers.

Around 1980, after suffering three >6.0 magnitude earthquakes in quick succession, the USGS was very concerned that something was going on. The CO2 emissions, dome building and earthquake swarms triggered at that time are continuing.

I would say Yellowstone is a bigger danger at this time.
