Having read some speculation as to why there have been so many adverse weather events….cloud seeding etc, could this be a more realistic cause? The effects are expected to last some years.

‘Tonga Eruption Blasted Unprecedented Amount of Water Into Stratosphere

When the Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano erupted on Jan. 15, it sent a tsunami racing around the world and set off a sonic boom that circled the globe twice. The underwater eruption in the South Pacific Ocean also blasted an enormous plume of water vapor into Earth’s stratosphere – enough to fill more than 58,000 Olympic-size swimming pools. The sheer amount of water vapor could be enough to temporarily affect Earth’s global average temperature…….’

I still remember the first time I saw that picture and read Carl Sagan's quote about it. It is indeed a thing to ponder.

The quote is:-
That’s here.
That's home.
That's us.
On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives … on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam
