Some people argue that what's the
point in spending so much money on climate control when all the volcanic ashes
spurted out by the volcanoes every year will emit enough carbon dioxide to cancel
the effect of whatever I do.
Here are some facts:
Human activities emit 60 or more
times the amount of carbon dioxide released by volcanoes each year. Large,
violent eruptions may match the rate of human emissions for the few hours that
they last, but they are too rare and fleeting to rival humanity’s annual
emissions. In fact, several individual U.S. states emit more carbon dioxide in
a year than all the volcanoes on the planet combined do.
