Sheesh.
Can't think of anything. Must be Global Warming.
Actually, you're not far off the mark. Scientist believe that the thinning ice at the poles allows more harmful UV light to penetrate to greater depths. This in turn, cause an increase in the seabed temperature. Since the mantel is thinnest in the polar regions (Dr. Leaon Garaiboski, U of Moscow, 1923-1969; "The Influences of Variable Mantel Thicknesses on Magma Concentrations, pgs 577 - 624), magma is more likely to surface in these newly warmed areas. Unless something to reverse this trend, drilling in arctic regions is likely to give us more volcanos than oil.
I see no calculation of the amount of ‘global warming’ gases released in these eruptions. Even with some of it being absorbed into the ocean it was probably more gas than is released by mankind in the previous year, maybe years. Conspicuously absent facts.
