yellow stone is a supervolcanowhereas mount saint helens isnt... yellowstone is 1000 times more powerful than mount saint helens which is 2500 times smaler. as yellow stone is a supervolcano and it emmited 240 cubic miles of rock, this means a supervolcano like yellow stone if it erupts can change the temperature of the earth as the debris released blocks the sunlight...potentially causing an iceage with global consuqunces... mount saint helens cant do this and will just cause damage to the place it arupted in the US...
