Title: You’ll Learn to…
Volcanoes ✓ describe the different types of volcanoes. (S9ES-IIIa-25)
o identify the different types of volcanoes.
✓ differentiate between active and inactive volcano. (S9ES-IIIa-26)

Air Quality News explores the impact that volcanic eruptions are having on our atmosphere.
If the past 18 months haven’t already been enough to handle, late last month, La Palma, Spain experienced its
first volcanic eruption in over 50 years. The eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcano, which began in late September,
has so far seen the forced evacuation of over 6,000 residents and the destruction of 1,300 homes and
buildings. The eruption itself isn’t particularly surprising, at any one time there are around 40 active volcanoes
and for billions of years, geological processes like volcanic eruptions have controlled the atmosphere and the state
of our climate. However, what is different about this specific eruption is its close proximity to the general
population of La Palma. When we see pictures of the Cumbre Vieja eruption or other eruptions of a similar
magnitude, we see ash-covered skies and rivers of lava flooding the land. However, according
to Sævar Helgi Bragason, an expert in air quality and climate for the Icelandic Environment Agency: ‘Generally
speaking, the lava itself is not really an issue, it’s the gas pollution emitted from the volcano that is by far the
biggest safety concern for everyone in the area.’ Volcanoes emit a cocktail of chemicals, but one pollutant that is
a major cause for concern is Sulphur dioxide (SO2). Like with other more commonly known pollutants, SO2 is
associated with a wide range of health impacts, from respiratory issues such as asthma and bronchitis to
cardiovascular and lung disease. Dr Anja Schmidt, an expert in the impact that volcanic eruptions have on air
quality at the University of Cambridge analyzed the air pollution impact of the 2014 Bárðarbunga eruption in
Iceland and found that the volcano emitted 12,000 tons of SO2 per day, this is three times more than all European
industries combined. In another study led by Dr Schmidt in collaboration with the University of Iceland, the
researchers found that at the time of the eruption, incidents of respiratory disease rose by a quarter and the
incidence of asthma medication dispensing increased by a fifth. ‘This is the first study to convincingly show that
there is a direct link between respiratory health and the presence of volcanic pollution,’ Dr Schmidt tells Air
Quality News. The Cumbre Vieja eruption in La Palma is still ongoing and the complete air pollution picture is
yet to be fully understood, however recent satellite images published by the European Space Agency revealed
that SO2 emissions from the eruption were moving over the Atlantic Ocean towards Central America. As the
molten lava from the Cumbre Vieja eruption has flowed into the ocean, Spanish authorities have warned of the
potential health impacts from exposure to ‘laze’ pollution. Laze occurs when hot molten lava comes into contact
with ocean water, forcing the water to evaporate and creating magnesium salts that mix with the steam. According
to the U.S Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), breathing in laze pollution may damage the lungs.
This damage is caused by the dangerously corrosive hydrogen chloride, which is a product of the laze. Hydrogen
chloride creates an accumulation of fluid in the lungs, referred to as pulmonary edema, which results in fatigue,
chest pain, and coughing. In severe cases, laze can be fatal to both humans and marine life. The heat from the
volcanic lava can boil fish in the ocean and leave them floating on the surface of the water. While there is nothing
that can be done to reduce or prevent the pollution from volcanic activity, a lot can be done to prepare in order to
minimize the health impacts when a volcanic eruption inevitably occurs. As a country known for its volcanic
activity, the Icelandic Government now has specific devices in place to measure volcanic pollution, this
information is then sent to a live feed which warns the general public if any spikes in air pollution do occur.
However, it is not just the countries that are home to these volcanoes that need to prepare.
During the 2014 eruption, researchers found that pollutants were being transported more than 3,000 kilometers
from Iceland. Following on from this, Dr Schmidt has been working with the UK Government to update the
National Risk Register. This means that similar to acts of terrorism, heatwaves or pandemics, the UK now has a

Our country commonly experiences natural disasters like volcanic eruption. We cannot deny the fact that some
Filipino families lack the knowledge on how to ensure the safety of their family and end up dying. As an advocate
of MDRMM, you are given a task to conduct a campaign showing how every family will can participate in natural
risk reduction and mitigation and explaining its importance. You can select ONE from the choices below.

o The students can create poster, doodle art or slogan showing how they will participate in natural risk
reduction and mitigation and explaining its importance
Option 3: Journalist
o The students can create a feature article, editorial or open letter showing how they will participate in
natural risk reduction and mitigation and explaining its importance
