Volcanoes have been erupting on Earth for BILLIONS of years, and they’re still creating new landscapes today! Volcanoes can seem mysterious and scary, but people all over the world have learned to live in close proximity to active volcanoes.

Our guest is Freysteinn Sigmundsson, a volcanologist and professor at the University of Iceland.
