BREAKING: The Hawaiian volcano Mauna Loa has begun erupting, with lava currently confined to the summit. It’s the first eruption at the volcano since 1984.

This situation could evolve in a number of ways.

Report finds 1 in 10 people regret extravagant purchases made over lockdown, such as hot tubs, exercise equipment and £37bn test and trace systems.

End in sight?
Less clickbait, more science!
There’s been a slew of news saying the La Palma eruption is ending.
There’s not enough science to support this and jumping the gun is unhelpful, whipping up and dashing the hopes of already beleaguered locals.

Sinabung has been pretty active again in the past month or so. No fatalities but the ash is causing major agricultural issues

[Mel Bowles @Melly_Rocks]

@notsohumble_sam Your going back to teaching?

[Mel Bowles @Melly_Rocks]

@StuzyStu @LastQuake @lookner No

[Mel Bowles @Melly_Rocks]

This is exactly why the public ignors safety warnings when it comes to geohazards because tabloids like them bullshit like this so people stop believing what ever they read @Daily_Express you should be ashamed

[Dr Robin George Andrews 🌋☄️ @SquigglyVolcano]

I think I can handle this one. *clears throat*

...NO, @Daily_Express. No they won't and no it isn't. Shut the fuck up.
