This Week in Volcano News; A New Eruption in the United States, Lewotobi Eruption Danger
This week, a new volcanic eruption began in a section of the United States. Meanwhile, the eruption of Indonesia’s Lewotobi volcano reached a new intensity. And, in the Philippines, the Taal volcano produced a several month high of sulfur dioxide gas emissions. This video will discuss these stories and list the 49 volcanoes which are actively erupting around the planet.
