Excellent article in my estimation, stressing the need for some sort of nuance beyond "Other side bad". For those curious as to how a volcanic eruption could cause an increase in tempratures when often volcanic detonations are correlated with cooling the author explains: > Normally volcanos provide a net cooling effect on the planet because the soot and garbage (and sulfate aerosols) they eject block out a little bit of sunlight. This one certainly had that, but because it was a submarine volcano, it also boiled a giant chunk of the ocean itself, and sent it hurdling up towards the boundary of space. Thus increasing the water vapor in the air.
