What If All The World's Supervolcanoes Erupted At Once
Ғылым және технология
If all 12 or so supervolcanoes on Earth erupted at once, civilization would likely collapse. The volcanoes would spew thousands of tons of ash and toxic gas into the atmosphere, which would linger for months and block out sunlight. This could set off a volcanic winter as global temperatures plunge, killing crops and leading to worldwide famine.

If every single super volcano on Earth erupted then if the shockwave from the European super volcano doesn't get you in Iceland the volcanic ash certainly will the Galapagos Islands, and Hawaii will do pretty well, and might as well be the key to repopulating the whole world, but the best places to be in the event all super volcanoes erupted at once in the short term would be at the Greenland Arctic research stations, or the Antarctic research stations that are used to try to figure out the anti-neutrino reactor anomaly because those places are the furthest away from all supervolcanoes included the ones closest to them, so once all the super volcanoes erupt at once, and knock out all satellite dishes on the radio ground stations they'll lose radio contact with the outside world, but once they realize there are lots of huge, giant, and black plumes of smoke over the Antarctic ocean, and lots of marine life were forced to go to Antarctica where they freezed to death in waters that were too cold for them, and all the penguins that were her out searching for food for there families have either come back earlier than expected, or are still out at sea in the cold Antarctic ocean much longer then normal then they'll really get confused if they don't check their seismic stations before all of the super volcanoes erupt all at once. 😅😅😅😅😅😅

This actually happened before. During the dinosaur extinction, the asteroid slammed into Earth so hard it caused huge shockwaves, which caused Earthquakes and tsunamis, across the world and the Earthquake caused all if not many volcanoes to erupt perhaps at once since shockwave travel very fast. Poor dinosaurs. Can’t imagine an Alamosaurus getting engulfed by the ejectic cloud.

What I'd do to survive: Find a bunker far away from the volcanos. Get a water supply. Get some animals (cows chickens and sheep) Entertainment (duh) Warmth. Pets. Crops. Mre (meal ready to eat lasts about a decade or so and I don't mind eating it expired)
Please provide a list of the 12 supervolcanoes. I am interested to know more.
Earth : "yeah, even after more than 4 billion years I still have the power to do that, so you guys know what to do right?" Humans : "of course, drill 1.2 miles looking for oil and use nuclear power to radiate things around us, right?, I'm really sorry but your source of heat is extremely weak, it's not even funny, our technology is million times way better, in fact we're on the way to make the sun instead, ... also did you know that to us humans, Mars is better planet than you" Earth : "ah I see, as expected from humans, I will accelerate global warming even faster for you"

I did my dissertation on the Super volcano eruption in New Zealand and got an A. It wasn't 26.5 thousand years ago it was 23.6 thousand years ago. This was shown in 2013 by Vandergoes at al. The eruption actually stoped the start of the last ice age in New Zealand for 900 years and ash from that eruption can be found in Greenland.
Fallout shelter would be a grave. Tephra weighs about 5 to 10 pounds per square inch. The weight would trap people inside, the of the eruption wpuld potentially slowly cook everyone inside if the noxious emissions didn't kill them first.
