Between 10 and 20 volcanoes are erupting somewhere on Earth every day.
Every day, between 10 and 20 volcanoes are erupting somewhere on Earth, but scientists say the chance of every volcano on the planet erupting at once is so small that it's impossible. But what if it did happen? Would Earth survive it?
According to a geologist at Radford University in Virginia, Parv Sethi said it is not likely it survives it. Even if only the volcanoes on land blasted in sync, the effects would trigger an environmental domino chain many, many times more powerful than a nuclear winter, Sethi said. "Things will become so bad that one wouldn't want to survive on an Earth like this," he told Live.
