"Devastating Yellowstone Supervolcano Eruption Threatens 90,000 Lives"
Scientists have expressed concerns about the potential eruption of the Yellowstone supervolcano, which last erupted over 600,000 years ago. If it were to erupt, an initial blast could immediately kill around 90,000 people, with volcanic ash and debris blocking out sunlight and causing a drop in temperatures worldwide. This could lead to crop failures and famine in many parts of the world. However, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) states that the chances of a catastrophic eruption at Yellowstone in the next few thousand years are exceedingly small, and there is currently no evidence of an imminent eruption.
