Examples
Many volcanoes in the country are active, the most recent eruption being that of Mount Pinatubo on Luzon in 1991.
Even small caldera-forming eruptions, such as Krakatoa in 1883 or Mount Pinatubo in 1991, may result in significant local destruction and a noticeable drop in temperature around the world.
The 1991 Mount Pinatubo eruption also damaged much of Central Luzon, the lahar burying towns and farmland, and the ashes affecting global temperatures.
The cooling effect would be similar to what has been observed after the large explosive volcano eruption of Mount Pinatubo in 1991.
