This Supervolcano Is About To Cause A Worldwide Disaster!

Most Deadly Supervolcanoes Italy's Mount Etna has stunned the world with another eruption but Mount Etna is not the only volcano we should be scared of the volcanoes I'm about to reveal in this video could erupt at any moment they're taking time bombs poised to unleash chaos let's take a deeper look into the world of these explosive Giants catla volcano Iceland the catler Katla Volcano - Iceland volcano in Iceland last erupted in 1918 despite the years of Ka we remain in the danger zone if catler were to erupt its explosion would be 10 times stronger than that of nearby a of Fiat Leo Co which erupted in 2010 causing billions of dollars in economic damage and stranding millions of Travelers known for the ferocity of its eruptions catla's larger Ash plume would shoot higher into the air and spread over larger areas of Europe for a longer period with far more devastating effects on air travel and economic trade overall an eruption would be a high Hazard and high risk event capable of massive property damage and loss of lives as far back as 2014 concerns were raised that an eruption could also trigger a tsunami along the south coast of Iceland and now to see though the exact effects and potential damage remain unclear so How likely is it to erupt the likelihood is fairly High the two volcanoes only 12 M apart tend to erupt in Tandem and catler typically erupts in 40 to 80e intervals a 2018 study cited by Iceland magazine summarized that catler was charging up for an eruption but this is where things get Cotopaxi Volcano - Ecuador really terrifying kotaki volcano Ecuador the Koto Pary volcano in Ecuador is another disaster in the making shockingly it's eruption has been ongoing since 2022 but if it finally decides to erupt in a major way the effects would be catastrophic straddling the Andes Mountains Cotopaxi began roaring back to life in the mid-2010s and has been rumbling consistently since last year while these eruptions have mostly been minor a major seismic event would produce more than 100 million cubic M of Ash a column at least 12 M High according to a volcanologist Patricia moas If This Were to occur 200,000 people in Cotopaxi shadow alone would be directly or moderately affected mois added some estimates suggest that a major eruption could be even more devastating f.org reported in 2015 that up to 325,000 people would be immediately at risk if kotaki erupted as the volcano snowcapped Peak would likely melt and cause a massive flooding throughout the region however it's unclear when kapoy will have its next major eruption scientists believe it could be months years or decades but it will happen but there's another volcano Cumbre Vieja - Canary Islands that many people don't know about kumra via Canary Islands kumra via in La Palma in the Canary Islands which last erupted in 20121 although kraa's last minor eruption in 2021 caused minor damage and a few thousand evacuations scientists have previously warned that a major eruption of kumra via could cause the entire Western FL blank of the volcano to fall into the sea creating a mega tsunami with waves hundreds of meters high radiating out into the Atlantic however subsequent Studies have significantly downplayed the risk of such an outcome in a 2021 report for the US Geological Survey the Hawaiian volcano Observatory stated that the theory of an eruption prompted megatsunami does not hold up to rigorous examination scientists also say that the likelihood of a major eruption is low with a year-to-year probability being minimal however preparations should be taken anyway given the potentially catastrophic damages but that's not the Mount Vesuvius - Italy end of the story Mount vvus Italy mount vvus in Italy is another active volcano that poses a significant threat to humanity this volcano famous for its catastrophic eruption in 79 ad that wiped out Pompei and herculanum last erupted in 1944 today a major eruption would cause much greater damage due to the significantly higher population around the volcano about 3 million people live nearby many of them in Naples an additional 600,000 people live in the vuia Red Zone an area that would require immediate evacuation in the event of a major eruption according to the cbc's the nature of things a major eruption could kill over 10,000 people and cost the Italian economy more than $20 billion Millions would likely lose power water and transportation some for months mirroring the disruption caused by Iceland's aat Leo eruption in 2010 air travel and shipping across Europe would be severely impacted and Naples could end up buried under meters of Ash fortunately scientists believe that vvus is unlikely to have a major eruption for a few hundred years although the volcano has been quiet since 1944 it remains extremely active with a significant risk of future eruptions it's uncertain when the next major eruption will occur but up to a million people could be seriously impacted the Italian government has started moving people away from the danger zone creating a national park around the volcano and offering residents Financial incentives to relocate recent studies suggest that vvus may not erupt for several more centuries since 1631 fuus has been producing mafik magma Which is less vicious and gasr than cicc magma indicating that a large explosive eruption might only occur after a prolonged quined period isn't it terrifying that people don't realize we're living around unexpected landmines ready to explode at any moment well here's where things get Popocatépetl Volcano - Mexico even crazier poate P volcano Mexico in Mexico there's a volcano called puate petal which frightens people for a very strange reason its last major eruption was in the early 2000s the 17797 Ft volcano affectionately known as El poo has been spewing toxic fums Ash and incandescent Rock persistently for almost 30 years since it awoke from a long Slumber in 1994 situated 45 M southeast of Mexico City it looms much closer to the Eastern fringes of the metropolitan area of 22 million people the city also faces threats from earthquakes and sinking soil but the volcano is the most visible and closely watched potential danger a severe eruption could cut off air traffic or smother the city in clouds of choking Ash ringed around its Summit are six cameras a thermal imaging device and 12 seismological monitoring stations that operate 24 hours a day all reporting back to an equipment filled Command Center in Mexico City in January 201 24 to everyone's shock Mexico's poat P volcano whose name means smoking mountain in Aztec began beling out towering clouds of Ash located about 45 mil southeast of Mexico City in central Mexico the volcano is considered one of the most dangerous in the world with roughly 25 million people living within 60 Mi of it thus it's also one of the world's most closely monitored volcanoes a total of 13 scientists from the multi-disciplinary team take turns Staffing the command center around the clock being able to warn of an impending ash cloud is crucial because people can take precautions unlike earthquakes warning times can be longer for the volcano and in general the peak is more predictable effects of a major eruption would be catastrophic a large eruption could send a city-sized cloud of Ash 20 cm thick to descend upon the buildings of Mexico City Pacific Standard reported the deadly Cloud would then clog Mexico City's drainage lines poison it to water supplies and seize electricity transmission via short circuiting the outlet added noting that the devastation will be accompanied by 1,000° lahars and pyroclastic flows that would reach most of the towns in the immediate area after an 80-year dormant period popo Kate P has had recording seismic activity for years with many explosions occurring as recently as February 2024 however the volcano's Trends toward relatively small scale events are quite frequent The Wall Street Journal reported and the last major eruption was more than 1,000 years ago but let's take a pause for a moment Yellowstone Supervolcano - Wyoming because things are about to get really shocking Yellowstone super volcano Wyoming in the United States we have one of the most powerful super volcanoes named Yellowstone thankfully it last erupted 640,000 years ago but that doesn't mean we're in a safe Zone yet in fact we are far from it when the Yellowstone Caldera or super volcano in Yellowstone National Park erupts again its effects would be worldwide the US Geological Survey said most experts believe that a massive eruption could end up coating a surrounding region 500 M across in more than 4 in of Ash this would result in the short-term destruction of Midwest agriculture the volcano could also impact the global climate by emitting Ash and gas into the stratosphere which could block sunlight and lower global temperatures for a few years according to Michael Poland from the Yellowstone volcano Observatory the resulting catastrophe could shut down Transportation collapse buildings short out the electrical grid and cause massive agricultural failure volcanoes do not work in predictable ways and their eruptions do not follow predictable shedules even so the math doesn't work out for the volcano to be overdue for an eruption in terms of large explosions Yellowstone has experienced three at 2.08 1.3 and 0.631 million years ago this averages to about 725,000 years between eruptions that being the case there are still about 100,000 years to go but this is based on the average of just two time intervals between eruptions which is not very reliable most volcanic systems that have a super eruption do not have them multiple times when super eruptions do occur more than once in a volcanic system they are not evenly spaced in time although another catastrophic eruption at Yellowstone is possible scientists are not convinced that one will ever happen The Rite magma chamber beneath Yellowstone is only 5 to 15% molten the rest is solidified but still hot so it's unclear if there is even enough magma beneath the Caldera to feed an eruption if Yellowstone does erupt again it need not be a large eruption the most recent volcanic eruption at Yellowstone was a lava flow that occured 7,000 years ago geologists see signs that Yellowstone could be preparing for another large blowout soon though the US Geological Survey said it is not overdue for an eruption contrary to popular belief if you made it all the way to this part in the video you may qualify for our membership so you might want to listen closely it's an exclusive area where we release videos that we cannot show to the general public yet you will get to see everything first and learn about the truths that we cannot reveal anywhere else the community is growing incredibly fast so it's best to get in early before we close the access if you want to learn more hit the link in the description in the pinned comment or on our homepage
