Mount Etna is one of the world's most active volcanoes and is in an almost constant state of activity. The fertile volcanic soils support extensive agriculture, with vineyards and orchards spread across the lower slopes of the mountain and the broad Plain of Catania to the south. Due to its history of recent activity and nearby population, Mount Etna has been designated a Decade Volcano by the United Nations. In June 2013, it was added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. (Wikipedia)

-------------- From Wikipedia --------------
Mount Etna is an active stratovolcano on the east coast of Sicily, Italy, in the Metropolitan City of Catania, between the cities of Messina and Catania. It lies above the convergent plate margin between the African Plate and the Eurasian Plate. It is one of the tallest active volcanoes in Europe, and the tallest peak in Italy south of the Alps with a current height (July 2021) of 3,357 m (11,014 ft), though this varies with summit eruptions. Over a six-month period in 2021, Etna erupted so much volcanic material that its height increased by approximately 100 feet, and the southeastern crater is now the tallest part of the volcano.
#Etna covers an area of 1,190 km2 (459 sq mi) with a basal circumference of 140 km (87 miles). This makes it by far the largest of the three active volcanoes in Italy, being about two and a half times the height of the next largest, Mount Vesuvius. Only Mount Teide on Tenerife in the Canary Islands surpasses it in the whole of the European-North-African region west of the Black Sea. (Wikipedia)

Is anyone else seeing faces in the clouds? Wild!
Saw an 👽 head 🤘🏼
Yes! "Our brains are evolved to quickly detect faces, which may explain why people tend to see them everywhere, including in inanimate objects like toast or electrical outlets. Other examples of pareidolia include seeing animals in the brush instead of leaves, or spotting a dog or shoe in the clouds." www.google.com/search?q=what+does+it+mean+to+see+faces+in+clouds+of+smoke&oq=what+does+it+mean+to+see+faces+in+clouds+of+smoke&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIHCAEQIRigATIHCAIQIRigATIHCAMQIRigATIHCAQQIRigATIHCAUQIRirAtIBCTM1MTEzajFqN6gCALACAA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

BTW, the blues and purples are sulfur in the gasses.
That's not good, if we should believe responsible politicians.
So huge amount of pollution would cook our globe 🌎 😢 If we pay some more climate taxes, it maybe stop blowing out all this pollution 😢
Spectacular!!
This is power from land
Prayers for the people of Italy..
Phlegraean fields are now active also and have unearthed 2000 plus year old ruins
