In the beginning, there was an island… It is just a piece of earth confetti in the middle of the sea, born from a natural phenomenon.

For a long time, head in the stars, men have been fascinated by these tiny points of light that can be seen in the sky every night. They are huge stars, 100 times larger than the sun ; their light takes a long time before reaching us! “Nothing is lost, everything is transformed!”

The origins of volcanism lie in the twelve tectonic plates of the earth's crust... plates which move slowly as if on a conveyor belt above molten magma...
These movements, whether pulling the plates towards each other or pushing them away, provoke the accumulation of magmatic gases and molten rocks... and lava erupts!
Told as a story this document explains the mechanics of volcanoes.
