    OMG, please don't use the term 'scientist' and refer to real world problems at the same time. 'Scientist' can't 'prove' anything because they do not have all the data, no one has ALL the data. They can theorize and try to support conjecture, but above that they are absolutely as clueless as you and I are about the past and the future of this planet.

    One of my hobbies is reading highly technical reports and translating it to a simpler form so anyone can understand it. I've been going over this data for years to piece together what is written here. But I did mention one source above. Here's a short video that shows the difference between 4G and 5G to allow machines to work together much faster.

    You might be having some trouble with reading comprehension because I was not responding to you.

    How many?
    Also, if you would reference your sources, it might help the sceptics.

    Any time someone speaks in vague generalities, I can only presume that you are supplying your own conjecture(which is fine when stated as such.)

    "Due to the fact that on average only between 50 and 60 volcanoes erupt each year, there is not nearly an adequate amount of volcanic activity to equal or to surpass the amount of anthropogenic sourced pollution (USGS, 2009). Even supervolcnoes, that have had only 8 eruption within the span of millions of years, do not have enough frequency to equalize with anthropogenic source pollution (USGS, 2014)."

    They're talking about extinction level super volcanoes. Sure it's a hazard, but as likely as a big asteroid strike. And about as much can be done about it. They stated it would take 700 Mt Saint Helen's level eruptions to equal mankind's output. Their main concern in the paper seems to be about acid raid from sulfur dioxide content.

    Thats not the actual article that I read,.. I just did a quick google and that site came up. I didnt even read it. Just said Volcanic Polution,.. so I figured what ever information you were looking for should be in there.

    The article I read was about the Volcano that blew in Iceland in 2010 or 2011.I cant find it and honestly do not have the patience to search right now.

    Iceland volcano gives warming world chance to debunk climate sceptic myths | Leo Hickman

    "Extrapolated over a year, the emissions would place the volcano 47th to 75th in the world table of emitters on a country-by-country basis, according to a database at the World Resources Institute (WRI), which tracks environment and sustainable development. A 47th ranking would place it above Austria, Belarus, Portugal, Ireland, Finland, Bulgaria, Sweden, Denmark and Switzerland, according to this list, which relates to 2005. Experts stressed that the volcano contributed just a tiny amount – less than a third of one percentage point – of global emissions of greenhouse gases."

    This is a good takedown of the climate skeptic arguments around the Iceland volcano.
