"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

Especially the footage of cars and emergency vehicles and flank eruption.

How Much CO2 Does A Single Volcano Emit?

I had to search that and you're right.

I'd be good with it if it only took out DC.

It sure is puking out the Sulfur Dioxide SO₂

This thing has been puking lava and toxic gases into the air for over a month straight. I think Biden ought to ban volcanoes that erupt for more than a day.

There were 70 confirmed eruptions at some point during 2021 from 69 different volcanoes; 22 of those were new eruptions that started during the year. A stop date with "(continuing)" indicates that the eruption was considered to be ongoing as of the date indicated. 48 of them are still erupting.
