This week, the destructive eruption of Ruang in Indonesia appears to have finally ended. However, at the same time, another volcano in the country known as Ibu now has a risk of producing a major explosive eruption. As a result, thousands of people were evacuated. Meanwhile, the Taal volcano produced an uptick in sulfur dioxide emissions while at the Slamet volcano its exclusion zone was expanded. This video will discuss these stories and list the 45 volcanoes which are currently erupting around the planet.
