Iceland's Fargradalsfjall volcano spews molten lava across the terrain near Grindavik. Iceland is feeling the impact from global warming. While the Fargradalsfjall volcano, which erupted in March this year, lies in the volcanic lowlands southwest of Reykjavik, other Icelandic volcanoes lie under the island's large ice caps, such as Eyjafjallajokull, which erupted in 2010. Since the 1990's 90% of Iceland's glaciers have been retreating and projections for the future show a continued and strong retreat in size of its three ice caps. The reduction in mass and pressure from the melting ice caps is increasing the likelihood of further seismic and volcanic activity. | August 19, 2021 | 📸: seangallup
