Should Volcanos Be Banned?

    Iceland are insisting of hanging to their suspect Volcanoes despite Eyjafjallajökull causing problems last year. Now Grímsvötn is causing problems which is bound to cause flight issues in and around Europe in the next fortnight.

    I for one am annoyed that they're allowed to let this continue. Why are the IMF not intervening? Thankfully Barrack Obama will help us out tomorrow but what happens when he leaves?

    they should be taxed at least, if you want to be a volcano i dont see why the rest of us should have to pay for your lifestyle choice

    You can't just ban geology...

    Pour cement in the crater. Should do the trick.

    I reckon a collective blasting with p1ss should put it out.

    Steam will dissipate in no time, and might not even be a problem to start with at high altitude. Carry an umbrella just in case though.

    Iceland should be fined for not using geothermal energy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,794 ✭✭✭chillywilly


    There would be eruptions if volcanos were banned.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,778 ✭✭✭Pauleta


    I think they need to be regulated. There are way too many of them and some are giving the good volcanos a bad name.

    All their energy usage except for cars and transport etc is geothermal

    They tried to ban earthquakes and they just went underground.

    I concur with the concept of taxing the volcanoes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,298 ✭✭✭cosmicfart


    Volcanoes have been around long before man (and his bítches) I say we need to find common ground with these Volcanoes otherwise its going to reach boiling point


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,704 ✭✭✭G.K.
