Greenhouse gases are a good thing. Without them there was a 300 million year long ice age. The Earth is on the outer edge of the Goldilocks zone... the orbits where liquid water is possible.:

“Snowball Earth
2.4 to 2.1 billion years ago

The Huronian glaciation is the oldest ice age we know about. The Earth was just over 2 billion years old, and home only to unicellular life-forms.

The early stages of the Huronian, from 2.4 to 2.3 billion years ago, seem to have been particularly severe, with the entire planet frozen over in the first “snowball Earth”. This may have been triggered by a 250-million-year lull in volcanic activity, which would have meant less carbon dioxide being pumped into the atmosphere, and a reduced greenhouse effect.”

I am sure that AOC and the brain addled enviro teenager would blame the eruption on global warming.

Harry Turtledove wrote an amusing trilogy of speculative fiction about this.

New Orleans lower ninth ward is not being rebuilt

Maybe 10% of what it was

[Truth29]

Maybe we would stop worrying about toxic Wokeness and start back on basic survival skills.

[PGR88]

Damn you global warming!

“I don’t know where I’m a gonna go when the volcano blows”

But I don’t want to land in no New York City
I don’t want to land in Mexico
I don’t want want to land on no Three Mile Island
I don’t want to see my skin aglow
I don’t want to land in Commanchee sky park
Nor in Nashville, Tennessee
I don’t want to land in no San Juan airport
Or in Yukon Territory
I don’t want to land in no San Diego
I don’t want to land in no Buzzard’s Bay
I don’t want to land on no Ayatolah
I got nothing more to say

No clicks for Yahoo, ever.

excellent idea. And maybe it would appease the volcano temporarily

Maybe we could get Debra Paget to jump in to cool it off.

It would result in every liberal dying.

It’s either this or a direct asteroid hit to save America. I’m game for either one.

[sageburn]

The only ones that won’t be affected are those that have been vaccinated...because...you know...immortality and all that.

There are also. Micro novas from our sun. Comets and a few other nasty events. One most over look are the abrupt continental shifts. Indian subcontinent Himalayas with the largest peak Mount Everest. This likely took place around the time of the start of our current ice age or the beginning of the Pleistocene.

before that was the Pacific hitting the West coast creating the Sierra Nevada with the largest peak Mount Whitney this likely in my opinion happened less the 30 million years ago.

There are examples of this all over even the Appalachian Mountains used to be the size of the Himalayas.

Modern Geologist would say these events where slow. I believe they're mistaken. One of many examples. The Nampa Statue or Nampa Figure is the figure discovered in Idaho in 1889 on the ground layers, that is believed two million years old 300 feet deep. Note this two million year old artifact in Idaho looks like she is wearing a Europe dress.

Since an eruption this intense might trigger a couple of the major CA & Pacific faults, we’d be faced with some serious reapportionment before any subsequent elections...

Serious planning should include, at a minimum, the immediate relocation of all 45-million illegal migrant invaders to CA...

Relocations of the residents of several major cities to CA is also an option worth considering...

If yellowstone really blows, it will potentially wipe out the entirety of north america.

“The loss of life, however, would, of course, be the most horrific aspect of event. Which, thankfully, probably won’t happen for at least another 10,000 years.”

I’m pretty sure white privilege would immunize me, but then they would come after me for reparations.

People must have been really small back then.

I know what will happen! I saw it a movie.
