TAMBORA: The Eruption After Which the Year Without a Summer Began
The eruption of Mount Tambora in 1815 became one of the most powerful natural disasters in history. Huge masses of ash and gas rose into the atmosphere and changed the climate across the entire planet, causing the so-called year without a summer..
In this video, we examine how the Tambora eruption affected global temperature, why sunlight became weaker, how crop failures and famine began, and how a single natural event was able to change the lives of millions of people.
This is a documentary analysis of a disaster in which not only the moment of the eruption matters, but also its consequences:
Mount Tambora
year without a summer
volcanic ash
climate change
global cooling
crop failures and crises
the influence of volcanoes on climate
