Imagine a volcano is like a giant sneeze, when it erupts, it sends stuff into the air. That stuff can make the whole planet cooler or warmer, just like how a blanket keeps you warm at night.
Examples
- A volcano erupts in Indonesia, and people across the world feel it by having colder winters.
- Volcanoes can send clouds of ash so high they block out sunlight for months.
- After an eruption, you might get more rain or even snow where it’s usually warm.
