Volcanoes make sunsets more colorful. When Alaska's Kasatochi volcano erupted in 2008, people all over the world saw unusually beautiful  orange and coral hues in sunsets. This visual phenomenon is the result of fine ash particles in the atmosphere scattering the sun's rays

Still, it’s good to know what to watch for and what to do. Volcanoes are like giant vents for the Earth. Imagine a pot of chili bubbling on the stove. If it has a lid on it, steam can’t escape. The chili might just bubble up and erupt over the sides of the pan. Take the lid off, though, and the heat can escape. http://easyscienceforkids.com/all-about-volcanoes/]]> 2016-04-29 17:28:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kellykj/volcanopadlet/wish/108529481 https://padlet.com/kellykj/volcanopadlet/wish/108529497 https://www.dosomething.org/us/facts/11-facts-about-volcanoesThe danger area around a volcano covers about a 20-mile radius.

The magma, molten rock, and debris from volcanic eruptions have formed some major landforms like islands, mountains, plateaus, and plains. The volcanoes didn’t just contribute to land masses, but gaseous emissions from volcanoes over hundreds of millions of years are believed to have resulted in much of the early atmosphere.
