Mr. Copper is right. Volcanoes of the world produce more air pollution than all of humankind. “Carbon Taxing” is just another global elitist scam to tax and control us all. Man couldn’t alter the climate if he wanted to. An old friend who moved to Canada years ago laughed at us in Honolulu, claiming the VOG was really just automobile pollution in the crowded city. I had to show him this research model… published with our local weather now:

This is how they track the SO2 from the volcano.
After two days inside the closed-up house running the A/C with smokey blue air outside, today the NE tradewinds returned and cleaned the air. Vog is going southwest offshore again. Lava eruptions from the fissures has become more liquid, free flowing, and USGS says this is the fresh lava that has drained down from the summit area. So we expect more flowage. Not much else is new. We wait… we watch… and if necessary we move out of the way. Just another day on the volcano.
