    Annual anthropogenic (human) CO2 emissions in 2022 totalled 37.15 billion metric tonnes. A study estimating total CO2 release from the Laki eruption (18th century Iceland, a basaltic fissure eruption of similar magnitude) was 304 million tonnes over the eruption’s year-long duration (Hartley et al., 2014). This is 0.008% of annual anthropogenic emissions.
    If anyone figures out a way to prevent volcanic eruptions, by all means let us know, but in the mean time I think it’s pretty obvious that the anthropogenic emissions (which we actually can prevent!) are a tad more of a problem 👍

      Well the 2010 eruption of Eyjafjallafjökull output roughly 300 cubic metres per second of lava (this is 100 cubic metres per second) and produced 150,000,000kg of CO2. That might sound like a lot but Eyjafjallafjökull's second phase of the eruption was explosive and released large amounts of ash, grounding flights across Europe. Ironically, this avoided roughly 344,000,000kg of CO2 emissions, meaning the eruption actually avoided 194,000,000kg of CO2 being released into the atmosphere
