Although volcanoes are commonly considered natural disasters,
they are bearers of new life. It is important to understand
that we may not be able to prevent volcanic eruptions, we
can study and learn from them in order to detect any future
eruptions.

volcano from erupting. If you want to help us again please
gather information about hurricanes so we can save the cost
