Cumbre Vieja volcano on La Palma Continues Erupting

The US media seems to have lost interest in the volcano currently erupting on the Spanish island of La Palma in the Canary Islands. The European media hasn't lost interest (it is a Spanish concern, after all) but they seem surprised that a volcano isn't like like a thunderstorm. That is that it isn't over in an hour.

Well, that isn't quite right. Some members of the US media are worried about the displaced pets of La Palma. There have been more stories on that issue in the past week, than on the displaced people, or the destroyed buildings, destroyed infrastructure, crops threatened, etc.

The current eruption of Cumbre Vieja began on 19 September 2021.
