Topic Reading-Vol.2420-11/26/2018

Dear MEL Topic Readers
The worst year to be a human has been revealed by researchers
There are quite a few ways to trace the history besides reading what is written. One way is to analyze ice samples from glaciers or ice sheets in high elevation or altitude, such as the Alps or Antarctica and identify atmospheric pollutants in different times. Recently, researchers found that there was a substantial increase in vog in CE 536 caused by volcano eruptions in Iceland.
Vog is a form of air pollution that is caused when sulfur dioxide and other gases and particles emitted by a volcano eruption react with the air. Vog contains a mix of dangerous components and irritates the eyes and causes a range of harmful effects on the lungs, including wheezing, shortness of breath and difficulty breathing. Also, the particles scatter light, making the air appear hazy, which affects the crop growth. Particle pollution can cause asthma attacks, heart attacks and can kill.
After the massive volcanic activities, the northern hemisphere seemed to have suffered from years of disastrous climate, agricultural, economic and health impacts.
Can human ingenuity cope with such catastrophic natural event now?
Enjoy reading and learn what really is a bad year in human history.
