If this is the true cause, I wonder if we'll see a "Volcanic Winter" the next few years: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcanic_winter

This phenomenon is the kind of shit that makes "climate change" controversial. Because temporary events can cool us down while the macro-pattern is increasing heat.

EDIT: It's actually expected to cause warming because of the massive amounts of water it pushed into the stratosphere: https://climate.nasa.gov/news/3204/tonga-eruption-blasted-unprecedented-amount-of-water-into-stratosphere/

Geoscience includes so much more than rocks and volcanoes, it studies the processes that form and shape Earth's surface, the natural resources we use, and how water and ecosystems are interconnected. Geoscience uses tools and techniques from other science fields as well, such as chemistry, physics, biology, and math! Read more...
