Apologies if this has already been raised, but whilst half of Europe is hopping up and down at having their travel plans disrupted for just 36 hours, the last time this particular volcano erupted, in 1821, it allegedly spewed ash into the sky for two
years.
Hypothetically, say this time it does the same thing - which on the face of it, would seem a reasonable possibility. What would happen if the current airspace closures were to continue for two years ?
I don't believe we have the technology to 'put out' a volcano do we ?
As a species, we excel at arrogance in the face of nature.
