This week's episode of 5 Minute Volcano heads to central Africa to look at one of the largest volcanoes in the East African Rift. Karisimbi is next door to more famous volcanoes like Nyiragongo, but even if it might have have erupted in thousands of years, it has still produced deadly volcanic hazards. However, it might also be the source of green energy for Rwanda and the region. And yes, still not 5 minutes. 

Some sources for this week's episode:

• GVP page for Karisimbi
• 2010's deadly lahars at Karisimbi.
• Assessment for the geothermal potential at Karisimbi.

This week's music was "Warm Heart of Africa" by the Very Best.
