Original Note:
Current evidence suggests that all volcanoes combined emit less than a few percent (and probably less than 1%) of human CO2 emissions. Even Mt. Saint Helens in 1980 only matched human CO2 emissions for about 9 total hours, and such large eruptions are rare. https://www.climate.gov/news-features/climate-qa/which-emits-more-carbon-dioxide-volcanoes-or-human-activities https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-volcanoes-co2/fact-check-volcanoes-do-not-produce-more-co2-emissions-than-human-activity-idUSL1N2XV1HA https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/earthtalks-volcanoes-or-humans/
