Time for me to stock up on ammo and find the location of your shelter.Time to start canning food. And stock up the fallout shelter.

Yeah that one in Iceland. I can’t remember the exact spelling of it but I think it was something like. JfjangkwiALGNFKWehelppeiBzzbfnelllrjwerbcj9er
With a VEI 7, it kind of doesn't matter...hell, sometimes with VEI 6's it can be catastrophic (e.g. the year without a summer)

For a million bucks about all you get is “something something bend over and kiss your ass goodbye”
They did a study where they concluded that drilling holes and trying to cool the Yellowstone caldera with water was as likely to speed up an eruption as slow one.
So we’ve got that going for us.
You mean Giorgio. Yanni, who also exists, is a long haired Greek composer of keyboard shlock music.
Drilling won't do diddly. Magma chambers even for calderic volcanoes are far beyond the reach of modern drilling equipment. The Russians have dug the deepest hole on earth and even that was superficial and multiple miles away from Earth's mantle.
If you pumped in an enormous amount of water over time it would cool it, but cooling releases gases and they don’t know what the result would be.

I don’t think they mean to reach it, more create a heat sink that lowers the temperature in the upper layers.
NASA Has a $3.46 Billion Plan to Cool Yellowstone and Harvest it for Energy
NASA has devised a plan to ensure the volcano underneath Yellowstone Volcano remains dormant in order to prevent a possible natural disaster.

Trump said they should just nuke it!
Worked well on hurricanes.

It would be a technological challenge just making it through the crust

I don’t think we should try it. I’m just saying that they’ve studied ways to screw with the caldera and even if we could cool it, it’s unclear that would help.
I mean honestly, what can we do to stop a super volcano from happening?
Here's something completely different to think about:
How would such a supervolcano eruption impact the Ukrainian war effort?

I think folks have probably been saying that....forever
I'd say the 1930's probably beat the shit out of anything we're going through now...

Depends on if enough people in China and India starve to death or not.
Lmao at using per capita when large percentages of those populations hardly release any CO2 emissions
I hope you understand how incredibly misleading that chart is.Depends on if enough people in China and India starve to death or not.
ETA: I see @fsu1jreed already explained it.
We try, or tried…Don’t you feel like it would be best if all nations followed the same rules?
Absolutely, but since we are the top super power in the world, along with being responsible for a majority of CO2 already in the atmosphere, shouldn't the US lead by example?
