概要

Volcanoes in Canada last erupted 150 years ago. That fact should not be as reassuring as it sounds. George Kourounis makes his living inside craters and has thoughts on the difference between dormant and quiet.

He has been on ropes 400 meters down inside active craters, dodging lava in the air, working with scientists in Congo, Vanuatu, Ethiopia, Hawaii. The question he keeps being asked about Canada: are we safe? His answer is that the Ring of Fire does not have a safe section. It has a quiet section. We are in the quiet one.

Mount St. Helens went sideways. That is the part nobody expected. A 5.1 earthquake, the world's largest ever documented landslide, and a lateral blast that killed 57 and flattened millions of trees. The eruption itself was predicted. The direction was not.
