A VOLCANO in the Canary Islands that could kill millions of people when it next erupts is no longer being properly monitored because of budget cuts, scientists said yesterday.

 does no-one ever watch the discovery channel, they had a programme all about it last year.
basically the volcano is really unstable and when it collapses a super tsunami will roar across the atlantic and hit the east coast with a vengence. investigations has found that this has happened before a few million years ago and in several different locations

The only way to mitigate catastrophe would be to have sufficient warning to stage the largest evacuation in human history.
