The main gasses that are released during a volcanic eruption are water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, sulfur, and lesser amounts of chlorine, hydrogen, and argon. carbon dioâ¦xide, carbon monoxide, sulfur hydrogen.
While volcanoes emit poisonous fumes that originate from dissolved gases in the Earth's magma, these poisonous gases are only part of the concern associated with human activity. CO2 and other greenhouse gases are what I would imagine are of greater concern. Every year, human activities emit around 100 times more CO2 than volcanoes do in the same period of time (30 billion tons vs. 30 million tons -- to put it another way, 30,000,000,000 vs 300,000,000 tons -- that is A LOT of CO2). The amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is the highest it has been in about 15 million years.
