That is possibly even a rather low estimate. The sheer amount of ejecta and ash will quite literally blanket the Earth. It would make for a good story premise

It would make for a good story premise for a movie/TV show/video game, but not so much fun to actually live through.
- sliken 9y agoSoil world wide is decreasing in quality. Wasteful farming practices, slash and burn farming, erosion, monoculture farming, heavy pesticide use, making pesticide resistant crops so you can use more pesticide, etc. Seems far from sure that a world wide cloud of ash might well do more benefit (better soil, cooler temperatures, helping dead zones in the ocean) than harm.... assuming we plan for it.
