Can we get this dude to be head of volcano NASA or w/e?

finally, a sensible solution

And as a different politician I can assure you that if you vote for me I will fight for the freedom of volcanoes to erupt whenever and wherever they want. In fact, I promise a volcano in every household and quicksand in every sandbox.

Cause this is America. Where land has more rights than people voting.

The former president of the Philippines said that he will urinate on the volcano that was threatening to erupt. Lol

you must be American

But look at the picture, the lava is trapped.

What you mean? Cement stronk!

Not to mention the average normal size of an opening you’d have to plug to begin with. Even if it didn’t just drain down the hole or dissolve the moment it got to lava, it would be a ludicrous amount of concrete just to make a layer a few feet thick. Even if you did manage to make a plug a hundred or more feet deep and it didn’t melt or move, an eruption would likely just blow the mountain apart from around it.

I saw people on YouTube pour the cement directly into a hole they were filling. Should make it even quicker to not have to add water it can just mix with the molten rock.

Keep fuckin around and you're gonna end up in a Republican cabinet one day.

Meh, the pressure will do the ball the way into space I bet.

Clay, more or less.

Most cements melt at a higher temperature than most lava gets to, so it would be solid chunks of cement getting blasted miles out when the pressure builds high enough to erupt

Yes. That's the joke.

Even if the plug would hold the volcano would just split open another hole in the earth and erupt from there

It's 2023 things are weird now you just gotta accept it

Tens of thousands of tons of rapidly fragmenting concrete being launched into the upper atmosphere - cos what a major volcanic eruption needs is extra shrapnel
