In the future people will not be studying 'theological textbooks'; but people will be observing and studying nature in all its forms and will share their understanding of the world we live on. Discovering the cycles, understanding the cycles and respecting the cycles.
As Europe suffers a very serious four month 2011 Spring drought, where the rains simply did not fall and the cooler Spring months were more like a hot Summer, now Iceland's Grimsvötn erupts!
Being 'volcanically illiterate' I do not know what this eruption will bring; but I am interested to find out and so I will observe and learn. Part of learning is imagination. You can observe something and try to figure things out for yourself using your imagination.
People's first reaction has been Grimsvötn = think Eyjafjallajökull / Airports .. however, I studied the images and I thought 'rain'. I know that it could go the other way and have the effect of drying out the atmosphere and worsening the drought. If the eruption is big enough then it could potentially change the climate and bring rain.
I wonder if volcanic activity is also the Earth's way of regulating the climate in times of extreme heat across various natural climate cycles where temperature changes are more extreme.
This is quite exciting, because if the eruption is large enough and it does cool the atmosphere/climate, then it may create perfect conditions for rain and that would show (or prove) that the planet's intelligence is a dynamic living system tuned to a very fine frequency.
Of course, the Earth is providing all the conditions for life, otherwise we would not exist. I am thinking that the volcanic ash and cloud (electrical charge) can alter the cycle of dry weather that has remained in place for many months. I will only understand completely what I am seeing by January/February 2012.
Reports are suggesting the May 21, 2011 Grimsvötn eruption is the largest for this volcano in the last 100 years. The magma flow and clouds of ash are currently greater than those witnessed at Eyjafjallajökull in 2010.
I did a bit of research and discovered evidence that increased volcanic activity does regulate the weather and initiate climatic change:
Volcanic Eruption Increases Rainfall in Southeast Asia
Scientists studying tree rings over the past to demonstrate that the majority of volcanic eruptions can increase the rainfall in Southeast Asia thus challenging the common perception that the volcano as a catastrophic destruction.
