I've been watching and listening to livestreams of the eruption, and in the past thirty minutes, the volcano has went from the loud but regular tone of a military jet, to a military jet on afterburner. At times it gets painfully loud, and the caldera gets noticeably brighter and shoots more magma onto the slopes. You have to wonder if they're going to get that cone collapse after all (the one they've been worrying about).

As a side note, there's a constant sound of aircraft overhead, and some radio chatter when it was more quiet. But strangely, before the noise really picked up, you could occasionally hear a cat meowing near wherever that camera is mounted. Which is just.... strange. It seems like most of the streams are sharing what seem to be just a small number of feeds.

I was watching around midnight last night and there was a rooster crowing in the background.

Rather surreal.

That volcano is getting off light, Spain has the lowest carbon taxes in the EU.

Watched this as the Sun was breaking there at 8 am this morning and it was pretty tranquil. Mostly roosters and one reporter in the distance, expecting this no doubt.

Is it bad I just want to see that thing go nuclear? Not hurt anybody, of course.

Volcanos have done some crazy shite … one spewed so much ash that it caused Europe to go without a summer a few hundred years ago and dropped the global yearly average temperature by a couple of degrees for a couple of years, and one was so loud that the sound of the explosion was described as loud thunder over 800 miles away - think of hearing a very loud bang in Baton Rouge then turning on the news and seeing there was an explosion in Chicago.

If the Yellowstone caldera ever collapses then that’s end end of most life on earth - humans included.

From what I've read it would not be that bad. The USA would be in deep shite Food production world wide would be significantly reduced leading to many people starving but humanity would not go extinct.

I’d really like to know the amount of Co2 going into the atmosphere and compare it to the current human output. For science

We’re gonna need an extra 10,000 windmills to offset the CO2 from this eruption

May be should use old windmill blades (since they are not recyclable) to rebuild the land around Grand Isle???

Here's the feed that your feed is copying.

?? LIVE: La Palma Volcano Eruption in the Canary Islands (Feed #1)

Yesterday, there were 2 cones and a side vent. That collapsed and now it's a big spewer building up everything around it, and spilling lava toward the sea.
