A New Volcanic Eruption Has Started in Iceland

After thousands of earthquakes and lots of speculation, a new eruption has happened on the Reykjanes Peninsula. It’s in the same area as the eruption last year and it is not posing a threat to any people or towns. Well, that is the current situation. The authorities are constantly monitoring the site. People have been discouraged from going there because it’s not yet been deemed safe. However, people have shown up already.

While there is no idea how long this eruption will last, it’s exciting that a new one has sprung up after this volcano had gone dormant. The eruption last year when on much longer than anyone expected. So, we shall see what happens.

Donate to the Icelandic Search & Rescue Teams

Iceland’s Search & Rescue Teams are volunteer organizations that help people who find themselves in any type of danger here. They were at the eruption last year and are at the new eruption now to monitor the gas levels and see what routes are safe for people to take to view it. If you would like to contribute to their trainings and equipment, you can donate to them directly here.
