The correct response is:
Volcanic eruptions eject sulfur dioxide, which is converted to sulfuric acid, which then reflects incoming energy from the sun back to space, therefore cooling the surface of Earth.
Sulfur dioxide released during volcanic eruptions can lead to the formation of sulfate aerosols in the atmosphere. These aerosols can reflect sunlight away from the Earth, contributing to a temporary cooling effect on the planet's surface.
