Tanzania’s Ol Doinyo Lengai is the only active volcano known to erupt natrocarbonatite, the coolest lava on Earth: it flows at roughly 500–590°C, against 1,100°C or more for Hawaiian basalt. Fresh flows look black or dark brown in daylight, then react with rain and atmospheric moisture until the mountainside turns chalk-white—as though someone spilled milk over the lava.

Yellowstone’s famous geysers could go quiet as the climate warms
5+ day, 14+ hour ago (1048+ words) Yellowstone's geysers depend on melting snow, so a hotter, drier climate points to fewer eruptions and more wildfire on the plateau. People plan whole trips around standing at the rail at Old Faithful, waiting for the water to go up....
