    Volcanoes typically erupt with a lot of ash which blocks the sun and cools the planet. Get a big enough volcano and the earth stays cooler for years, disrupting crops and creating a potential famine.

      The sum total of 33 actively degassing volcanoes in the world results in 60,000,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year without undergoing any eruption.

      We could use a little ice age to go with.
