The Phlegraean Fields, now considered one massive supervolcano, are beginning to stir, making the scientific community uneasy.
Today, the Solfatara crater emits between 4,000 and 5,000 tons of carbon dioxide each day. To put that into perspective, that's equivalent to the emissions from burning about 500,000 gallons of gasoline daily.
You've probably heard of places like Yellowstone National Park in the United States — that's one of the most famous supervolcanoes.
When a supervolcano erupts it can form a giant caldera, which is a huge crater that can span dozens of miles.

Understandably, they face prison terms if they fail to predict the day the volcano activates.
