A very good morning to one and all present here. Today I�ll give a short speech on the topic of �Volcano�.
Google defines the term as �a mountain or hill, typically conical, having a crater or vent through which lava, rock fragments, hot vapour, and gas are or have been erupted from the earth’s crust.�
Wikipedia offers some more insight into this. It states as follows: �A volcano is a rupture in the crust of a planetary-mass object, such as Earth, that allows hot lava, volcanic ash, and gases to escape from a magma chamber below the surface. On Earth, volcanoes are most often found where tectonic plates are diverging or converging, and most are found underwater.�
In layman�s terms, a volcano is a natural calamity that leads to dire consequences which include loss of life and property. Indonesia is the most prone to volcanic eruptions in the world and is known as the �Pacific Ring of Fire�. Its 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora is the most powerful in history.
Thank you.
