Het is begonnen!!! De eruptie van de Mauna Loa op Hawaii, de grootste actieve vulkaan op deze planeet, die zich al maanden geleden aankondigde met ondergronds gerommel. Vorige eruptie was in 1984, dus we gaan aardig wat vuurwerk zien.
Dank @SevereWeather_N!
De Mauna Loa begon om 23.30 uur local time uit te barsten, dat is 83 minuten geleden. De eruptie is momenteel beperkt tot de top en het magma bedreigt volgens @USGSVolcanoes op dit moment nog geen lokale gemeenschappen. Maar dat kan snel veranderen. Denk #LaPalma
Beeld van de krater van 12.07, helaas alleen nog maar stills en monochroom, maar ze zijn vast al bezig met iets beters installeren.

2/ Débunkons d'abord une énormité : non, la croûte terrestre ne contient pas « juste assez » de métaux pour la transition énergétique. Les profs de SPC de 4e peuvent faire le calcul avec leurs élèves. Excellente application des puissance de dix + traitement anti-écoanxiété.
3/ Prenons le premier métal cité par l’article, le lithium (Li). Une bonne vielle table de Mendeleev un peu documentée nous donne son abondance dans la croûte terrestre, également mentionnée ici : fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abondance…
