you dont have big warnings before sudden diahrea
shit just happens
*pun intended*
>tornado alley
Isn't that like, a ton of Kansas?
Have you ever driven through Kansas?
Do you know what's in Kansas?
*fucking nothing but farms*
this is an estimate and shit
but....
it will kill the thirty people who live in that circle. big deal
Primary ash zone should be survivable (though potatos are a popular crop in Idaho, so potatos might get pricy for a bit)
Secondary though hits a lot of stuff
yeah portland, seattle, and san diego. big deal
It also covers a lot of farms and shit
which is my entire point
ya retard
No, *food* farms
`What’s more, we’d probably have decades of warning between the first sign of an eruption and Yellowstone actually blowing its top, said Christy Till, a geologist and assistant professor at Arizona State University who has researched the volcano for the past six years. “That's the kind of time scale where we think something could happen to trigger an eruption,” she said. “It's not like it would happen tomorrow.”`
Worst case scenario, a couple hundred-thousand die and we lose a few billion in damages
I mean shit, like all of Nevada is covered, and that's a *ton* of ranches.
but at that point, we'll have likely put precautions in place to lessen the impact
Uh.... bunch more than a couple and definitely in the trillions for damage, minimum, but if we have that much warning we may be able to make it far more survivable and bring both of those values down.
A lot like nukes, the problem isn't the blast it's what the blast leaves behind.
trillions seems a bit...high
You're looking at just the direct impact
Food shortages lead to a *lot* of bad stuff.
>we could buy food from other countries
Tbf
You should look at the food sector of the economy a lot more closely
We have a massive overabundance of food...
We're a food exporter that others buy from
In the form of corn
Just stop turning it into ethanol
And we're all gucci
