The Eruption That Changed the World's WeatherAdded:
Did you know a single volcanic eruption once changed the world's weather? In April 1815, Mount Tambora in Indonesia erupted with unimaginable force, ejecting ash and gas high into the atmosphere.
The particles blocked sunlight globally, triggering what's now called the year without a summer.
In 1816, crops failed from North America to Europe, leading to food shortages, riots, and mass migrations. Even famous stories like Frankenstein were inspired by the eerie, gloomy skies. The eruption of Mount Tambora remains one of history's most dramatic climate-altering events.
