If this thing went off, would global warming still be a serious issue?
Not for a couple hundred years. Then it would come back.
Not if, but when...
Lots of ash
everywhere
No, but global cooling very well might be.
“If this thing went off, would global warming still be a serious issue?”
Well it might, if there were any surviving humans to make the observation. The handful of survivers would most likely be more concerned with finding something to eat and clean fresh water.
The explosion would be so huge and likely of such duration that within one year NA would be a dead zone, and a few years after that the rest of the world would be effected, including the southern hemisphere.
If this thing went off, breathing would be a serious issue.
Sure after the nuclear winter clears up.
If this thing went off global warming would cease to be an issue as about 25 cubic miles of debris would be shot into the air. Farming in the mid west and Canada would take a bit of a vacation, and the damage would be, what is that word? Catastrophic.
Happens ever few then thousand years or so.
Probably would not have much of an impact on the plates moving. Kind of like a zit or boil bursting. Discomfort, but really not life threatening to the earth. Would not want to be standing near it though.
