The recent large earthquake off the Russian Pacific coast woke up a number of Kamchatka volcanoes.

This quake in the Drake Passage is on the same Pacific "Ring of Fire" that extends further south into West Antarctica, where there are a number of volcanoes above and, more importantly, below the ice sheets. Kick starting more of those could cause some real ice melt from under the shelf that cannot be blamed on climate hysteria.

The world is geologically and climatically alive and constantly changing. There is no "normal" and the proposition that humans both cause and can control it is pure nonsense..
