Is there a relationship between global warming and natural phenomena like earthquakes tsunamis and volcanic eruptions?

All these phenomena can emit some carbon dioxide emissions. (Not very much. Human activity is responsible for 100 times the amount of carbon dioxide that comes from volcanic eruptions.) However, carbon dioxide does add to the enhanced greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
The other side of the story is that dust and other airborne particulates from volcano eruptions have a cooling effect for some days, as the ash cloud blocks heat from the sun.

What natural disasters does Kenya have?
tsunamis, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
What is the most common cause of tsunamis?
Tsunami are waves caused by sudden movement of the ocean due to earthquakes, landslides on the sea floor, land slumping into the ocean, large volcanic eruptions or meteorite impact in the ocean.
Can there be an earthquake and tsunami in the same place?
Actually, tsunamis are caused by earthquakes, underwater explosions, and volcanic eruptions.
What are 3 underwater names that can cause tsunamis?
Underwater landslides, Underwater volcanic eruptions, and Underwater earthquakes
Do tsunamis have weather geologic or humans cause?
Tsunamis are geologic in origin. Typically they are triggered by earthquakes, but other causes can include landslides and volcanic eruptions.
What natural disasters does Kenya have?
tsunamis, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
Are tsunamis connected to any other natural phenomena?
Yes. Tsunamis are often triggered by earthquakes.
Do all tsunamis start with earthquakes?
No. Tsunamis may be caused by landslides, volcanic eruptions and, on rare occasions, asteroid impacts.
How many other natural disasters are involved in tsunamis and why?
landslides, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions
How do convergent and transform boundaries cause earthquakes?
It can cause earthquakes, volcanoes, oceanic trenches, mountains, tsunamis, and subduction.
Are earthquakes the only things that cause volcanic eruptions?
No. Eruptions are caused by magma moving up from the mantle. Earthquakes can be a sign of magma pushing the earth out of its way (causing the earthquake) which lead to the eruptions and potentially tsunamis.

Tsunami are waves caused by sudden movement of the ocean due to earthquakes, landslides on the sea floor, land slumping into the ocean, large volcanic eruptions or meteorite impact in the ocean.
Where do catasrophic events result from processes that happen with the earth?
Earthquakes, volcano eruptions, floods, tsunamis, etc

Does Sweden have a lot of tsunamis volcanoes eruptions and earthquakes?
* No Sweden does not get tsunamis. * No Sweden does not have any live volcanoes to get volcano eruptions, closest volcanoes would be the once in the Eifel volcanic fields in Germany. * Yes Sweden do get earthquakes from time to time, but powerful earthquakes are very rare in Sweden, which lies on a thick and cold crust.
