      It’s dangerous to anyone directly by it as it happens and in the form of pumice rafts if any where created, but that’s about it.

      Depending upon the composition and how much material gets built up, it will likely erode away fairly quickly and may pose a hazard when not visible but still just under the waves or something.

      I don’t think Valcanos are effected by climate change. They do release a fair amount of CO2 and can effect climate change, but I don’t think the other direction has any effect. Maybe fracking or something can cause it, but this kind of thing is expected to happen frequently in this area. It’s nothing to be concerned about.
