Εντυπωσιακές φωτογραφίες από ενεργά ηφαίστεια σε όλο τον κόσμο

Τα ηφαίστεια ενεργοποιούνται ανεξάρτητα από τα ανθρώπινα σχέδια, αν θες να πας διακοπές εκεί και πόσο μάλλον αν μένουν άνθρωποι στους πρόποδες.

Πόσοι θυμάστε το ηφαίστειο της Ισλανδίας το οποίο με τον έναν ή τον άλλον τρόπο επηρέασε εκατομμύρια ευρωπαίους για αρκετούς μήνες το 2010;

Την προηγούμενη εβδομάδα ενεργοποιήθηκαν δύο ηφαίστεια στην Ινδονησία στην οποία αυτή τη στιγμή είναι ενεργά περί τα 130 ηφαίστεια.

και όπως λέει η Liz Cottrell -στο Huffingtonpost.com- ερευνήτρια και σκηνοθέτης του Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History Global Volcanism Program, υπολογίζουν ότι σε όλη τη Γη υπάρχουν 1.540 ενεργά ηφαίστεια.

1. Colima, Mexico

View of the Fire Volcano spewing ash from Tonila community, Jalisco State, Mexico, on July 11, 2015. Western Mexico's Volcano of Fire spewed a four-kilometre column (2.5 miles) of ash and molten rock late Friday, prompting authorities to evacuate 80 people from a small village. The volcano, on the border between the states of Jalisco and Colima, has been active since Thursday but its eruptions intensified on Friday and ash rained down on at least seven communities, according to federal authorities.
