Ever since we have all gotten a bit more conscious of our effect on the environment, humans have been trying to figure out the best way they can dispose of their garbage. And we’ve got quite a lot of it too. From all the excess food from restaurants, to the old worn down shoes that don’t have any souls in them any more, to old birthday cards, to the remnants of your very first car that unfortunately no longer can run for longer than a few minutes, all this trash needs to go somewhere. The usual resting place for all this stuff is a landfill, or a recycling center. But even then, many times this isn’t ideal. Why don’t we just… toss it all inside a volcano? On the surface, this seems like a fantastic solution to the problem of garbage! I mean, why not? Lava is ridiculously hot, it’s usually located on mountains that are far away from people, and frankly, it’s just a freaking awesome idea! So… why don’t we do this? Well, today Brainiacs we are finding out. Because as much as you might like to think that the best way to solve our garbage problem is to just toss all our waste into a volcano and forget about it, life just ain't that simple. There are quite a few things to take into consideration, and we’re gonna talk about them all in today’s video. So make sure you have a biohazard suit on, cause we are getting dirty as we imagine what it would be like to toss all our garbage into a volcano, and discuss if this is even possible!
