    Not all volcanoes are created equal. You need very explosive plinian type eruptions to punch large volumes into the stratosphere where is can remain for timeframes that can effect climate. Pinatobo type eruptions. Icelandic and Hawaiian type volcanoes are generally gas-poor and low viscosity and do not have the eruprive capability to eject material in to the stratosphere.
