"Bill McGuire, professor of geohazards at the Benfield Greig Hazard Research Centre at the University College of London told the UK Daily Express, "Magma would be flung 50 kilometers into the atmosphere. Within a thousand kilometers virtually all life would be killed by falling ash, lava flows and the sheer explosive force of the eruption. One thousand cubic kilometers of lava would pour out of the volcano, enough to coat the whole USA with a layer 5 inches thick." He adds that it would once again bring "the bitter cold of Volcanic Winter to Planet Earth. Mankind may become extinct."

Just to point something out, about the nuclear plant:
This is nothing like Chernobyl. The Japaneses plant is shut down; whereas Chernobyl was still operational and in the process of nuclear fusion when the disaster struck.edit on 11-3-2011 by infinite because: (no reason given)

Well, that's why I asked you, to clarify it for me.
I mean, I never knew that water co-existed with liquid rock so happily under the tectonic plates.
I'm sure the water, existing at such extreme pressures, along side liquid rock, needs microwave emitters to convert it to a gas. I mean, under those conditions, that's the sort of thing that would make water boil -- microwave emitters.
And not the extreme pressures, heat or liquid rock.
Cool - many thanks!edit on 11-3-2011 by noonebutme because: (no reason given)

Could meltdown, leaking into the water supply and contaminating the surrounding areas. It will never be operational again, but the area will not be abandoned.
