TLDR: Taal Volcano (located in the Philippines) is active right now and could have a massive eruption at any moment. ~560,000 people are in immediate danger and millions more could be affected by it.

(this is barely being reported on by western news btw. why talk about natural disasters when we could talk about british royal family drama)

What’s happened as of January 14th:

“The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology has since raised the alert for Taal to level 4 which means a ‘hazardous eruption’ is possible within days or hours.”

On January 13th, Taal shot lava into the air for an hour and a half, reaching hights of half a mile, along with static lighting and giant clouds of ash

Taal has had 50 volcanic earthquakes within a period of 8 hours

Buildings close to Taal have collapsed under the weight of ash

The “calamity zone” is everywhere within a 9 mile radius of the volcano. 560,000 people live in this zone and only 30,000 have evacuated.

It’s in the middle of a huge lake (as you can see in the pictures), and an eruption could trigger a tsunami

The CNN Philippines website has a list of groups accepting donations to help evacuees
