> The cooling would only be temporary anyway.

And, increase CO2, increasing warming, in the long term. I would also naively assume that the reduced light would somewhat pause natural sequestration, from plants, for the duration of the cooling.



The article noted the CO2 released matches what humans do in 2.5 hours. Yet, some eruptions have lowered temps globally for months/years. The long term effect from the CO2 is real, but also a tiny drop in the bucket compared to humans


I had not thought about that. That is a reasonable collusion about a non intuitive feedback loop.
