| #7 Chile signed the Kyoto Treaty, so this volcano won't adversely affect the environment one bit. |

| #5 According to Wikipedia (I know, I know), volcanoes eject C02 as well as SO2, and bunch of other stuff. My point was that a natural event like this can do as much damage or more than any puny thing that humans can do. |

| #4 Rambler, I think that's actually S02, sulfer dioxide. I don't know what impact S02 has on the climate but I remember when Mt. Pinatubo last erupted in the Philippines we had some glorious sunsets. |
