Have you been hearing about carbon footprint being a big problem, well what bs, now finding out that molten carbon is below Yellowstone National Park, which in and of itself is a super volcano with the power of a massive eruption. So CO2 and carbon the two things they say man is responsible for just bit the dust.

Article below:
A recent scientific discovery has drastically changed our view of the global carbon cycle and identified a new significant risk. Researchers have discovered a giant lake or reservoir made up of molten carbon sitting below the western US.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/trevornace/2017/04/30/a-massive-lake-of-molten-carbon-the-size-of-mexico-was-just-discovered-under-the-us/#1494b882420b

The molten carbon (primarily in the form of carbonate) reservoir could drastically and immediately change the global climate for over a decade if it were to be released. Thankfully there is little risk in the near future of this happening. The carbon sits 217 miles beneath the surface of the Earth in the upper mantle and has no immediate pathway to the surface. In total the lake covers approximately 700,000 square miles, approximately the size of Mexico. This has redefined how much carbon scientists believe sits locked away in the Earth's mantle and its interaction with surface and atmospheric carbon.

You may be asking why and how this lake of molten carbonate exists in the first place. It is a result of the Pacific Plate subducting underneath the North American Plate. As the Pacific Plate subducts, it experiences increasingly high pressures and temperatures. This, combined with the presence of gasses such as CO2 and water locked away in the rock, allows for partial melting of the plate. This is a similar process by which the Rockies Mountains formed in the western US.

In part due to this research, scientists now believe the Earth's upper mantle may hold up to 100 trillion metric tons of carbon. To put this into perspective, the US EPA estimated that in total 10 billion metric tons of carbon was emitted in 2011, or approximately 0.01% of the carbon sitting in Earth's mantle. Thankfully the release of the mantle's carbon happens very slowly over time primarily through volcanic eruptions. However, paleoclimatic fluctuations in CO2, creating ice ages and greenhouse global conditions are partially linked to dynamic changes in volcanism.

Yep, its been know for decades that the area around Yellowstone is a time bomb overdue to go off again [as it has in the past].  Its claimed that will destroy western US and drastically alter the world climate for a century.


Yellowstone 4.5 today. Follows a swarm of 2's and 3's. Numbers are going the wrong way.  Shocked





Yep. Some of the really really smart fellas say Yellowstone was and will be again one of if not the largest eruptions ever. Its also said we are overdue for a pole reversal. No one was around for the last one so no one is quite sure what will happen when it happens. I rather doubt the only result will be the water reversing its swirl down the drain.
I thought that was due to different centrifugal forces of the hemispheres, not magnetic forces ?

Whatever the cause, I'm not sure I want to be around when it happens.

You mean a magnetic pole reversal?

https://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/2012-poleReversal.html

How otherwise would the north and south poles be reversed.

You mean the earth will tip over 180 degrees? Because Guam tipped over?

Remember when big tobacco paid off politicians to cover up the
evidence of a link between smoking and cancer? This feels a lot like that.

Al Gore earning buckets of $$$$ by telling a lie.

I see the similarity. Thanks.

Magnetic pole reversal is a natural thing and we're overdue for the next one, so the smart fellas claim. Part of the reason they think they know this is that the magnetic field has been getting weaker over the centuries which is also part of the reason our climate is changing. The magnetic field is also our solar filter.  No, I really don't think the Earth will make a back-flip. I'm thinking the poles will just up and change, don't know how long that take though. Mother Nature can be fickle about such things.
