    i'm not into those religious and superstitious explanations of why Taal erupted

    we live on a dynamic planet's surface... always changing... always moving...

    lagi tayo makaka encounter ng geologic and atmospheric disturbances

    what we humans do is adapt

    kung meron mamatay, basta meron mag survive our species will continue... unless there's an event so catastrophic that no human can survive

    in the grand scheme of things, anatomically modern humans have been on Earth for only 50,000 years

    the Earth is 4.5 billion years old

    for most of Earth's history it was unsuitable for human life... until only very recently conditions allowed humans to evolve

    all that can change... conditions can deteriorate to a point where life becomes so difficult that we fight each other for survival and we reduce our population to a more sustainable level

    this has nothing to do with supernatural forces

    that's how i see things

    The thing is even the volcano would frown upon us if we drop virgins in the mouth of the volcano.

    Nowadays, the concept of virgin eh hinde naman artistahin o mga mestisa, chinita, morena. Usually di na virgin mga yan

    So who will we drop, tomboy, nerdy looking girl teenagers, fat girls na never nag ka boyfriend or even old maids

    Do you think this will make the volcano happy?

    So mag explode na lang sya

    should've started with the US first then, but i guess they have their own boom to deal with brought on by their own hubris.

    It doesn't work that way, unfortunately.

    Bodies of water around the volcano does not "cool" the eruption similar to pouring water on a bonfire.

    When lava/magma interacts with a body of water it causes explosive eruptions. An extreme example here would be Krakatoa, which was a phreatomagmatic eruption (steam+magma).

    Ano ba kasing big catastrophe ang pwedeng gawin ng Taal? Ang alam ko it's gonna like Pinatubo wiping out Pampanga. So for taal it's gonna be the sorrounding areas. So it's not gonna be the end of the world. Look at Pampanga now.


    What's the big deal with taal compared to pinatubi before which was considered the biggest eruption for 20th century.

    I just don't get it. Why the sudden fear of Taal eruption?

    Personally, I am worried because it's so close to the country's capital. Not sure if I read it in this thread, pero kung tatamaan pati buong metro manila, 25% of the whole country's population will be affected. Monday nga ashfall pa lang sarado na mga bangko at PSE.

    *shadow, Pinatubo is not in Pampanga, it’s in Zambales. Both Pampanga and Tarlac are more than 90km away from Pinatubo. And yet those provinces were ravaged by Pinatubo.

    Taal is just roughly 60km from Manila.

    End game scenario ang taal sa tin lahat depende sa magnitude ng eruption.

    Goodby shadow.
    If the lake is drying up, then that means mas malayo ang reach

    Natural lang yun mag dry up. Eh yun ang crater diba?


    Eh kasi nga the biggest eruption ng 20th century.

    Parwng sinabi nga ng Philvocs it's not gonna be as big as Pinatubo.

    Kaya nga ikaw na lang dapat ang ihulog sa bulkan.
    I think that's your real purpose in life. You're someone special, you understand nature and God better than everyone else. So please sacrifice yourself and go jump in the volcano. With such a selfless and noble act, Taal would surely calm down and the cataclysmic eruption would not happen.

    I second the motion. Wag masyado magkalat ng katatakutan na galing lang sa imagination. Yung term kasi na ginagamit is "sasabog" kaya maraming natatakot. Ilang beses na in my lifetime na may eruption ang Mayon, bata pa ko nuon. Yang ulan ng abo at putik naranasan na namin yan, nasira mga bubong ng mga bahay, mga halaman natabunan. Parehas lang ng experience sa Taal. Wala pa coverage ng tv at social media nuon.

    Many are overanalyzing what may possibly happen. Dinadagdagan pa ng speculation ng mga di naman experto/unqualified individuals.

    Yes, malaking pinsala ang pwede mangyari, pero while its a good thing to seek information (from reputable sources) para you can prepare and make smart decisions, yung iba naman diyan, tinatakot sobra ang sarili at ang mga ibang mga gullible na tao.

    You Sir are one in a million, you live far from taal, you have money to hire people to clean up in case of ashfall, you even have money to easily relocate in case your residence is destroyed, this of course is my impression of you based in your posts. [emoji75]

    Hinde naman. I Mean, what should people do outside of the danger zone? Nobody knows kailan sasabog.

    Kailangan ba huminto buhay? If it's gonna be end of Luzon then wala naman magagawa kahit sino eh.

    Parang ondoy or Yolanda sa Visaya. Nakapag prepare ba lahat?

    Ang unang dapat matakot yun nasa vicinity ng Taal.

    Personally I think it's not gonna be big as Pinatubo, hopefully I'm correct.
