A new study reveals a concerning link between climate change and increased volcanic activity, particularly in glaciated regions like West Antarctica. Melting ice sheets reduce pressure on magma chambers, potentially triggering more frequent and explosive eruptions. This phenomenon, observed in Chile, could unleash hidden volcanoes and create a dangerous feedback loop, accelerating global warming.
