    1. Temperature of magma mainly affects explosiveness of volcanic eruptions. Higher temperatures lead to lower viscosity and more explosive eruptions. 2. Volcanic ash from large eruptions can decrease global temperatures for a few years by blocking sunlight. 3. Geothermal energy is generated by harnessing heat from within the Earth through wells drilled into areas with hot springs and steam, which is used to spin turbines and generate electricity.
