Iceland volcano eruption: Lava flows onto roads, disrupting supply of hot water

- A volcano in southwestern Iceland erupted on Thursday morning for the third time since December, pumping lava up to 80 metres into the air, and sending fast-moving lava onto roads toward Blue Lagoon.
The lava flow hit thermal-based water pipes in the region just south of the capital, disrupting the supply of hot water to more than 20,000 people and leading the Civil Protection Agency to raise its alert level.
The lava stream was now only about 1 km from the peninsula's Svartsengi geothermal power plant, said Rikke Pedersen, who heads the Nordic Volcanological Centre research group based in Reykjavik.

I can't believe the ignorance of people..
This is not a calamity event in Iceland...
This has happened before and will happen again.
Other places have cyclones and rain events, Iceland has this...
Without volcano , there would be no Iceland . Safety to all .
Volcanoes are so awesome. Scary and dangerous, but very cool.
0:45 Okay, the snow and the glowing red of the lava gives off that visual effect that it would be in a movie.
Oh my God.😮
It is Godly though 😵💫🥴😍🤩
I don't understand. Do these people not have hot water tanks in their homes? Why are they buying "hot water" from the power plant? Either I don't understand something or this lady has no clue
It would just cost extra money and energy to heat that water. It's simply more monetary and energy effecient.
Holy cow 😮
Good Gracious ! Great Balls of Fire !
Nice day to warm up my hands.
It is hight time
Mother nature is unbeatable!
God is rewarding Iceland with new ground.
lol
How is God rewarding Iceland?
@@ronaldpagar6513 that lava is the catalyst for a new thriving soil of life. The lava is adding ground to the country. They will rebuild and rejoice the lava in future generations to come. Growing food, and basking in the rich greenery that will come
@@iamgriff but didn't it says that in the bible, The apocalypse,his returning And so on?
Iceland turned out into lavaland😂😂
Does Global news seriously need to add that dramatic sound effect in the background? You're not making a movie! Report the news.
In 2024, our planet enters a 12,000-year cosmic cycle. Since then natural disasters will intensify and occur much more often. You can learn analytics and forecasts of calamities for the coming years, and ways to solve the problem here: *"Global* *Crisis.* *The* *Responsibility"* *Creative* *Society*
Oh, in that case it has nothing to do with global warming! Thank you!
@@IvanIvanov-vy7ptno one brought up climate change but u because u lack critical thinking
So what is the scientific name of this "cosmic cycle"?
Blame the sun for getting hotter climate change guppies learn to adapt
Oh no, we better pay those carbon taxes and fast!!
wow, that is so wild!
It's actually amazing I could stare all day if I was there
How many tonnes of CO2 did this bad boy emit?
Are you kidding..?
Only Canada emits co2.. at least that is what we are told over here.
@@paulachenkonobert3802 Better tax it!
Wow! That's some serious dilemma they're facing. If that keeps up dispersing the irony will be "Ice"land will have to change her name to "Lava"land.
- Wow, that’s a lot of C02
- the ocean 👀
This is fine, I saw Pierce Brosnan drive thru this stuff on Dante's Peak
lol, I remember that movie
Ação da natureza tudo normal,.
This sound design is ridiculous.
Something Global can get right.
Am I the only one thinking of Eren Yeager now?
Wonder how much co2 that volcano released. We should tax it
All volcanoes combined only emit around 0.2 to 0.4 gigatons CO2 each years while human made emissions for 2022 was more than 37 gigatons... So stop the crap
A Poilievre Conservative? Annual fossil fuel CO2 emissions are 100X larger than the CO2 emissions from volcanic eruptions. Volcanic emissions are part of earths natural carbon cycle. Digging up long buried hydrocarbons and burning them into the atmosphere at totally unsustainable levels - is not.
The largest ever study on carbon pricing proves that it works at lowering fossil fuel CO2 emissions growth levels. As Alberta economist Trevor Tombe has shown - axing the carbon tax would benefit the wealthy (surprise surprise.) Canadians who earn less than $250,000 per year - get more back in carbon rebates than they pay in carbon tax.
Not as much as you'd think, actually. When that huge eruption happened years ago that stopped all flights in western europe for weeks, it released a shitload of CO2. However, because it stopped so much air traffic, it actually saved about 10x as much CO2 coming out from all the planes. It was a big net benefit. Kinda whacky.

I hope the U.S. did not lose a nuke in iceland like greenland.
Maybe time for a rebrand “ice” land… fireland? Molten lavaland? New Vesuvius?
Really cool-looking eruption! Wish I was there. Everything was quiet on my trips to Iceland.
Another coming soon by the looks of the graft on Live From Iceland
Are the Icelandic Traps beginning?
Hot water now made more hot😃
The water in those pipes is crazy hot, I think it comes out of the ground at around 200C as it was pressurized.
can the iceland folk claim refugee stattus?
They have excellent financial support in cases like that (there is a fund set up) as this happens once in a while.
If only Canada paid more Carbon taxes this wouldn't have happened.
What concerns me more is all the water that's been returning to Lake Mead. The poster child for climate change
😂
Use the lava to heat your water, duh.
Uhmmm.
They kinda do...
So much of a “duh” that they’ve been doing it for decades
@@JayJayAviation Yes, thanks for the update knowledgeable one.
I absolutely believe there was a terrible volcanic eruption in Iceland. As soon as this female reporter was disturbed from her bed, she quickly ran to the television station. Look at her hair! :)
And how is her hairstyle of any importance compared to this eruption?
@@RS54321 OHSA You must always tie your hair up neatly around machinery and volcanoes. Just standard safety procedures.
Climate activists should protest this volcano. So much carbon in the air
The locals evacuate so calmly. It’s almost like, just a regular commute, nothing to see here.
This is not a one-of event in Iceland...
If Iceland had a carbon tax, this would not happen...
The dramatic music is pathetic
Much like your profile name.
@@ScoobieSwisher7413 for sure!
@@sixtyfourchebby4507 Wow you really do like the 64 Impala, makes sense now...bring it out to Hot August Nights this summer.
@@ScoobieSwisher7413 I would love to come down for an entire season, there is way too much to take in and too many families and friends to see in one trip.
Take care from the southern interior of BC

@@sixtyfourchebby4507 I've followed the Seattle T Birds to Vancouver, Chilliwhack and Kelowna for road games, nice area for sure.
I was at the Blue Lagoon a few years ago. This eruption is the just the beginning of many more to come.
What's the relation between your presence at the Blue Lagoon and your prediction?
@@dom2661 It's a terrorist confession. Was in there with a big crowbar ripping it open. Vandals !
you know your gonna be on TV take 5 seconds and comb your damn hair ...
Leave the island !
Why? It's a tiny and not violent eruption in the very SW corner, no danger to 99.95% of Iceland.
Whats the Carbon footprint of this eruption?
Will the volcano be taxed per tonne?
Bet you think that's a brilliantly witty dismissal of anthropogenic climate change. Well, it's not - just obdurate ignorance.
Our PM, Trudeau, is on it!
@shevashevasheva777 global volcanic CO2 emissions are only around 0.2 to 0.4 gigatons a year while human emissions in 2022 alone were 37 gigatons
Oh yes, especially those in your capital. Lots of stink coming from there lately. nno9612
@shevashevasheva777 What point are you trying to make?
Nice hair
I hope evacuation plans are being made, and the public is prepared to flee.
This is not anything new to Icelanders...
Grindavik has been evacuated for months
It's just Iceland going through a growth spurt. Hopefully there's no catastrophic blow outs.
Those fire plumes looked like the flames on tuned gas pipes at various frequencies.
Apocalypse?
Almost and not yet because it takes years or centuries for his arrival
@@ronaldpagar6513 scientists say if the volcano of Aden erupts then will not stop and the apocalypse shall start.
@@user-pe8fi8fd5dwhere is that volcano? Never heard of it
@@JayJayAviation The volcano of Aden is considered a cosmic phenomenon unlike any other, and it may be the last phenomenon that the Earth witnesses before the Day of Judgment, as mentioned in the prophetic tradition. The volcano of Aden is not limited to a specific mountain, but rather it is a series of disconnected mountains that extend from the Bab el-Mandeb area in the west to the city of Crater located on its crater.

We need a third carbon tax to stop this!!!
More refugees for Canada
JESUS NAME PRAY AMEN
TRUE PROPHECY LAKE OF FIRE IS HERE FOR ALL TRUE SINNERS RIGHT NOW
You say that like volcanoes have never erupted before 😂
How does Iceland not understand what to do with lava flow? You blast the leading edge with water, ALL the water, constantly. You'll dissipate a lot of the heat and cause the leading edge to harden up. They literally already DID this kind of thing back in the 70's, so they really should have more of a grasp on the situation than their apparent "let's park police cars in front of it and watch" method.....
Yes they saved a harbor town because they had an unlimited supply of water unlike this inland site.

@@mattinvic1 Inland....they're like 5 km from the ocean, water is pretty accessible....
5km... all the water constantly... maybe the government that has dealt with this situation dozens of times knows what they are doing
Is Trudeau in jail yet
Better stock up on toilet paper
Fir a second there I thought the press was going to blame the eruption on climate change
Oh, they'll find a way to fit it in there somehow.
Call Trudeau! Immediately implement a federal volcano tax, this has to stop!
He's considering building a giant cork! Climate Change is caused by the movement of tectonic plates. When I tell them this, the drama teacher laughs!

@@garyhaggquist740 mate, you should search who the biggest polluters on earth are
@@imnotrouge Canada, with less than 1/2 of 1% of the world's population is the world's 10th largest overall CO2 emitter and the world's 4th largest fossil fuel producer & exporter. China's population is 37X larger than Canada and yet its emissions are only 17X larger. Western nations have had a huge head start on developing their economies and are responsible for the majority of *total historic CO2 emissions.* The USA is responsible for 25%, the EU 22%, China 12.7%, India 3%, and Canada 2%.
@@garyhaggquist740I've never had any sort of rebate and I earn less than that. A study has also shown that by getting rid of the carbon tax it would ease canadas inflation nearly overnight....
Just wondering when Trudeau is going to deem more carbon taxing necessary because of this
Edit. If global is trying to enhance the scariness of this situation with ominous music, it didn’t work on me

@@garyhaggquist740 I’m on disability. The rebate ain’t nothing. I would rather axe the tax and lower the cost. It was cheaper on me. And by the way I don’t believe voting is going to be the ultimate solution. We have a corrupt system on a flawed foundation and until we actually fix the foundation of the problem we will see corruption continue
@@SaltyKitten77 Sorry you're on disability. The reality is - the carbon tax's contribution to inflation is .15% or virtually zero. Will Conservatives ever acknowledge that climate change is increasing costs and causing hardship for Canadians?
@@garyhaggquist740 I don’t know if they will or won’t. Will liberals admit taxing people isn’t going to stop climate change and that canadas contribution is so minimal that it won’t make a difference? Why impoverish people for something that is truly natural and if it is man made then look at what we can control. How about stop dumping raw sewage in waterways? Or spraying our skies with chemicals?
We need environmental policies to change more than taxing the average individual. The rich and so called elites don’t care because they are still jetting around claiming moral authority
Stand united Canada your fires were horrendous!! they made Maui look like a bon fire, I have screen shots of Nasa fires you had people die putting them fires out if I could come to Canada and didn't have a 3 year old I would of helped and not many people did 😪 be happy ur alive if anything 💜💚💙💪🏽
Maybe a volcsnic landbridge will develop to greeland!😮

Hopefully this is truthful. Global does a bad job of reporting the truth when it comes to Canadian events. Its mostly state agenda reporting.
How much carbon tax is needed for the volcano eruption?
Some shape couldnt even bother to comb her hair before she went on camara
I immediately saw it as style that conventional North American online commentators lack.
Is this something we will label as climate change issue and raise tax about ? 😂
Oh No trudeau take more of my money for carbon tax.
TRUMP NOW
