Volcano
<p style="color:#dbdbdb ;padding:20px; border-left:5px solid #EEBA19;">The earth on the surface may seem placid to us but there’s a lot that goes on underneath that surface. The deeper we go down under the Earth’s crust, more will be the heat and its ferocity. This is because of the extremely hot molten substances at the core of the earth. There are times when these molten and ferocious substances tend to escape from the core of the earth leading its way through the Volcanoes. As they escape through the Volcanoes, there are smokes across the sky like storming clouds with red hot, fuming semi-solid substances bursting out of the Volcanoes. Such eruptions are catastrophic and have destroyed valleys, forests and houses killing hundreds of people. There are numerous such Volcanoes, however, they all differ in their structures and ferocity. </p>
