Today’s interesting fact has to do with Kick'em Jenny.
Kick'em Jenny is a submarine volcano located north of Grenada and south of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
Its summit is thought to be about 180 meters below the surface of the sea.
It is thought to be the only live (likely to erupt) submarine volcano in the Eastern Caribbean and is the most frequently active volcano in the region.
It has errupted 12 times since it was discovered in 1939.

Today's interesting fact has to do with the islandic volcano, Eyjafjallajokull.
Recently this volcano has been delcared to be a green eruption.
The reason for this, is that the amount of greenhouse gasses it produced are less than the amount of greenhouse glasses that would have been produced by the planes that the eruption grounded.
It says something that the planes flying to, from and within Europe, produce more CO2, that a series of volcanic eruptions.
