    "Not really. "Human activities emit 60 or more times the amount of carbon dioxide released by volcanoes each year" !You fell into the trap of not comparing apples with apples. That statement is for any average year. Not the extreme volcanic activity which was referenced in my first post."


    So if we had a catastrophic volcano eruption that was a whopping 60 times more powerful than than the combined eruptions of an average year, it would be the equivalent of just one year of human emisisions.
