"...Actually, that's not quite how the geology works. Where a subduction plate gets pulled down under earth, it gets a huge amount of friction and that surface layer get very, very hot. That surface layer tends to melt and then come back up to the surface and form a volcano."
So, this means 100% of EVERY subduction zone has a corresponding volcano? There are NO subduction zones without a volcano? I find that hard to believe.
If it is the case that there are subduction zones without volcanoes, what is the problem with dumping waste there?
