We have a modern example of how a major volcanic eruption can affect world climate: Mt. Pinatubo in 1991. After Pinatubo erupted, the result was a number of years of WAY above normal rain on the US West Coast and serious droughts in Australia.

I’m glad to see historical sources used to generate real climate data instead of models with lots of built in biases.

It’s again the Irish upsetting someone’s apple cart. (sarc)

I need to find out what happened to the copy of How the Irish Saved Civilization that I bought my father. (Or, you know, just buy my own copy.)
