The truth is that volcanoes expel a lot of CO2 and other gases and those into the air in addition to dust particles they are warming the planet. Writing about it would be carrying wood into the woods, as on this topic already mountains of paper were described.

See world just black and white andhe probably won’t the real nut, Withlet’s meet with English-French-Canadian-Australianým teamem look at the volcano in the spirit of the saying, even every black cloud has its silver edge. Yesterday at professional Nature magazine Geoscience upel article, which “Harmfulness” of sopek deals. It follows that if I know on volcanoes let’s see from another angle point of view suddenly it is from villaina stabilizing element of the climate.

The team of geologists and geophysicists points out that the volcanoes they are not just sniffing monsters, but as well asIt’sand liftand mixturei molten rocks yielding magma from the depths in height. The most common species volcanoes are volcanoes tboiled with unconsolidated slag. They often nicknamed “sprinkled cones”. The second most common group consists of bodies formed during iinteractions magma with surface whose groundwater.
Continental zones of volcanic origin, such as the one in Kamchatka, powerfully eliminate CO2 from the atmosphere by their rapid weathering and stabilize the climate over a period of tens to hundreds of millions of years. Credit: Tom Gernon, University of Southampton.

The emerging magma then gives rise to tuff cones a rings.m. Either but These are the majority smaller volcanoes, or stratovolcanoes, where the higher viscosity of lava flowsá the emergence of steep formations, always this results production a huge amount material which that is over leaveí of the original surface, begins weather quickly.

Now we come to this psubstantial. The approach, which scientists call the identification of primary relationships using the Bayesian network, has shed light on the past 400 million years. On this time scale, it has become particularly clear that that zventilation is not just the mechanical decay of rock, but that it also has its chemical side significantly influenceleading going on land, in the sea iv atmosphere. This is done through weathering products that contain calcium elements, potassium, magnesium a sodium. Sthey sail into rivers and oceans and gradually give rise to minerals inattacking carbon dioxide. In other words, it’s here Withfifth binding, when pO short-term increase in CO2 as a result of an eruption, comes long-term not really discountování levelsand heating gas in the atmosphere.
HOran zones formed by volcanic activity (by rapidly eroding into a chemically highly reactive “product”) I know scientists are beginning to look like main movers climate. In layman’s terms, if we do not look at the volcanoes biasedly, they will begin to appear to us geologically as sympathetic climate stabilizing element. V discussions withArticle scientists also fromthink about the possible possibility of some kind of geoengineering in the form of improved weathering, which could combat global climate change.
Conclusion
No need to see evil in everything. Even those who complain about us can think well of us.
