Mesmerising eruption captivates viewers
People look at the mesmerising volcanic eruption of the Piton de la Fournaise volcano on the La Reunion island, France on Monday, July 3. Several people flocked to the area to click breathtaking images of the eruption.
Frequent volcanic eruptions
A recent study has revealed that climate change has triggered a string of volcanic eruptions. With the extreme weather conditions that have gripped different parts of the world, volcanic eruptions are also becoming more frequent.
Factors that add to volcanic eruptions
Rising sea levels, melting glaciers, depletion of aquifers, and erosion of mountains are all factors that contribute towards increasing the chances of a volcanic eruption.
Geo-engineering solutions to 'cool' Earth
With extreme weather conditions that have contributed to wildfires, heatwaves and volcanic eruptions across different countries of the world, there lies a dire need to find a solution to 'cool' the Earth's surface. Geo-engineering is one such solution that experts believe could held 'cool off' the Earth's surface.
