minus-squarePons_Aelius@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years agoLarge volcanic eruptions have a cooling effect due to the large amount of aerosols injected into the upper atmosphere. It mimics/is the inspiration for the geoengineering idea (highly impractical at the scale required) of high altitude aerosols injection to slow global warming.
