GEOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Volcanoes affect the climate through the gases and particles (tephra/ash) thrown into the atmosphere during eruptions. The effect of volcanic gases and dust may warm or cool the Earth’s surface, depending on how sunlight interacts with the volcanic material.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Earth’s climate can be affected by natural factors that are external to the climate system, such as changes in volcanic activity, solar output, and the Earth’s orbit around the Sun.

Detailed explanation-3: -Climate change is causing the widespread warming of our land, oceans and atmosphere. Apart from this, it also has the potential to increase volcanic activity, affect the size of eruptions, and alter the “cooling effect” that follows volcanic eruptions. Any of these scenarios could have far-reaching consequences.

Detailed explanation-4: -Generating power. Generating electricity and heat by burning fossil fuels causes a large chunk of global emissions. Manufacturing goods. Cutting down forests. Using transportation. Producing food. Powering buildings. Consuming too much.
