When Mount Ruang in Indonesia underwent multiple explosive eruptions last week, volcanic gases were flung so high they reached the atmosphere’s second layer, tens of thousands of feet above ground.
The force of Mount Ruang’s eruptions this week ejected an ash plume tens of thousands of feet in the air and sent some volcanic gases more than 65,000 feet into the air, according to satellite estimates – about 25,000 feet higher than a commercial airplane will typically fly.
The eruption’s potential impacts to weather and climate are starting to come into focus, even as the danger posed by the volcano persists and evacuations continue.
It’s possible for volcanoes to have a short-term impact on the climate – including global temperature cooling – due to the gases they inject high into the upper atmosphere. But Mount Ruang’s influence on the climate will likely be minimal, according to Greg Huey, the chair of Georgia Tech’s School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences.......
An eruption as large as Mount Pinatubo in 1991 could certainly cool the planet for a few years, though it wouldn’t be able to erase the Earth’s current climate woes caused by planet-warming pollution, and it would come at the cost of tremendous damage to life and property.

only a few tenths of a degree.

Well if it makes it to 10 then that is a full degree.
But the earth will keep spinning I would think.
+1
Now that would be fun and funny but it would spit her out as too distasteful.
Notice also that this volcano is helping Bill Gates’ climate manipulation pogrom by creating a shadow over the earth, cooling it down.
Usually, volcanoes release sulfur dioxide, not carbon dioxide.
Then there are the efforts to block the sun, one way or another, to cool the planet down to a reasonable ice age.

These minor events were very short term. Nothing to worry about we are going to burn up if went don't all start riding bicycles, wearing masks and eating bugs quickly!
Yes, of course. But, also note that when CO2 is released it is accompanied with loads of dust — which blocks sunlight. This will lead to cooling. Extreme.
Anthropogenic global warming is a theory explaining today’s long-term increase in the average temperature of Earth’s atmosphere as an effect of human industry and agriculture.
All that sacrifice for nothing! This volcano could undo decades of our work to correct the Earths climate! /s
We know very little about the total heat and gas output of undersea volcanoes.
Huge swaths of ocean floor have not been mapped.
Thousands of active undersea volcanoes have never been located or measured.
“An eruption as large as Mount Pinatubo in 1991 could certainly cool the planet for a few years, though it wouldn’t be able to erase the Earth’s current climate woes caused by planet-warming pollution,“
I knew something like this line would be in there and it was!
What would happen if there was a event like what happened in 1816 when the earth literally had a year without a summer:

anyone notice cnn left out the undersea volcano that erupted in 2022 that di change the weather???
Putting weasel words in the headline is usually a pre4tty good indication the article isn't worth reading.
No worries!
Fewer freedoms and mo’ money will fix it!

OMG, how many trillion cow farts is this?
