Recently, a volcano in Iceland known as Eyjafjoll has erupted and became quite famous because of its effects worldwide. More specifically, it caused serious local flooding. What is more, due to westerly winds, the volcano's ash plume has been spread across Europe, causing a general distress and the cancelling of flights all around the contintent. However, this eruption might prove useful in the future, as some scientists claim that sulfuric ash can be sent into the stratosphere and cool the planet, solving the Earth's overheating. Others believe that this eruption wasn't big enough for this but it was a precursor to a larger eruption that could probably affect the climate. This event may be the proof that good things can result from bad ones.
