The UK Express has an article about how a super-volcano, specifically the one which comprises Yellowstone, could kill millions. Also, wondering if it is about to blow, which people have been wondering about for a long time. (via Climate Depot)
Instances of volcanic eruptions are their highest for 300 years and scientists fear a major one that could kill millions and devastate the planet is a real possibility.
Experts at the European Science Foundation said volcanoes – especially super-volcanoes like the one at Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, which has a caldera measuring 34 by 45 miles (55 by 72 km) – pose more threat to Earth and the survival of humans than asteroids, earthquakes, nuclear war and global warming.
There are few real contingency plans in place to deal with the ticking time bomb, which they conclude is likely to go off within the next 80 years. (snip)

Here’s what that looks like
Can we really consider “climate change” to be dead last when it gets zero percent, and shouldn’t even be included? From the article comments
- Tax it and issue some anti-volcano regulations; maybe Obama could visit the park the day it explodes.
- This is a very simple solution to this problem. Just have the Liberals become offended by this and the government will be forced to remove it. Problem solved.
- We will just wait for our Feckless Leader to sign an Executive Order that doesn’t allow the eruption without a background check.
Heh.
If the “supervolcano” in Jellystone blows, will Jeffrey blame it on Republicans?
It’s sometimes amusing to watch the Science Channel, but too many of their shows are apocalypse shows, telling us how the earth could end, and the Yellowstone volcano is just one of them. We’re doomed due to a comet or asteroid slamming into the earth, to some sort of supervirus that can’t be stopped, an overdue pole reversal which might strip the earth of its magnetic field during the reversal, you name it, it’ll kill us.
No. Republicans ruin most things but don’t control whether volcanoes erupt.
Powerful survey results, lol. How was it conducted? Oh, readers click on their choice. In the online click survey, most, 32%, believe gods will end mankind.
“32% believe God will end mankind.” Which shows you how stupid the alarmist’s “end of days” predictions are.
