'The warnings range from green — which means a volcano isn’t erupting — to red, which means that it is erupting or could be soon. '
'These days, volcano observatories and volcanic ash advisory centers around the world issue color-coded warnings to the aviation industry. '
'A massive plume of ash rising from Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano prompted a warning yesterday to pilots planning to fly over the area. '
'The eruption isn’t just dangerous to people on the ground anymore — it could also bring down planes. '
