Oh no, this will drive up the Co2 levels again and the media/governments will then say 'look guys your cars/gas usage must have done this and you need to scale back' (completely ignoring the huge eruption recently caused massive amounts of debris into the atmos....)

A la BBC last week...

oh come on, they are always talking this sort of thing up, slow news day etc. How many Horizon's, Equinox's etc have there been saying we'll all fry from a nearby gamma-ray burst, freeze in a nuclear or volcanic winter, choke to death after a "flood basalt", get crushed by a falling meteor/comet [insert your choice of apocalyptic doom here].

They're bloody part viking, for them the sky is always falling, it's like us whinging about the weather.

Nothing will happen......

Trust me.

I like the way they point out that it will cause extensive flooding of an err, floodplain, with nothing between it and the sea other than a bridge designed to wash away and a camp site!

No, it was a mistranslation. The dinosaur actually said "Grrrrrr, Gaaaarrr!!"

Eyafjallayokutl (whatever) last year was a side show. Kutl is the real-deal. Historically it blows a year or so afterwards. Duck!
