Only 50 hours ago, the second largest explosive volcanic eruption in the last 40 years occurred, devastating an inhabited island. This all occurred at the Ruang volcano in Indonesia, and due to the sheer amount of sulfur dioxide it ejected, people have asked if it will cause a volcanic winter. I will discuss if this eruption has the potential to cool the climate, and discuss the spectacular sunsets its aerosols might create.
