In the 1800s a volcano erupted causing earth and ash to the upper atmosphere resulting in a year without a summer. The Tonga volcano sent huge amounts of water to the upper atmosphere which may have resulted in a warming period.
I noticed a lot of the global warming carnage that has occurred happened after we stopped burning coal. A byproduct of burning coal is sulfur dioxide, a cooling agent.

WHEN the Indonesian volcano Krakatoa erupted in 1883, sending 25 cubic kilometres of rock and ash into the air, it did more than generate the loudest sound ever recorded. It also cooled the world’s oceans and suppressed rises in sea level for decades afterwards.
You realize they just admitted sea level was rising....long before "global warming"

Don't tell this to the AGW idiots. They KNOW that CO2, and only CO2, is the driving force for any temperature changes.
The AGW idiots harken to the middle ages and attributing everything they did not understand to witches. CO2 IS NOT a major factor in "climate change". The whole AGW movement is to gain political control of economies and reduce world food production to produce a decline in world population.
Peculiarly, I had more extensive thread on same topic posted in history and it was removed.
Anyhow. All that chit-chat about humanity killing ecology and yadee yada...
Any given volcano eruption produces more of them danger gases, than entire human industry, farting plus entire cattle. And, volcano eruptions go on regularly.
Maybe those, ecologically conscious, should concentrate on volcanoes, instead of coal?
