And they need more to account for the rise of temperature as we see today.

This is just one of those "dammit, the tree hugger's were right moments". At least it was for me.

Oh. You misunderstood my intent or perhaps I wasn't clear... I meant that they add to global cooling due to creating clouds that shade the surface of the earth. How much is unknown because it's only been this last century that we can measure changes that may have been influenced by volcanic activity AND it's generally agreed that in terms of geologic time... the last century, has been volcanically quiet.
