Why volcanoes are good for the Earth: http://volcano.oregonstate.edu/what-are-some-good-things-volcanoes-do Definitions- Geosphere: any of the almost spherical concentric regions of matter that make up the earth and its atmosphere, as the lithosphere and hydrosphere. Atmosphere: the envelope of gases surrounding the earth or another planet. Hydrosphere: all the waters on the earth's surface, such as lakes and seas, and sometimes including water over the earth's surface, such as clouds. Biosphere: the regions of the surface, atmosphere, and hydrosphere of the earth (or analogous parts of other planets) occupied by living organisms. Carbon Dioxide: a colorless, odorless gas produced by burning carbon and organic compounds and by respiration. It is naturally present in air (about 0.03 percent) and is absorbed by plants in photosynthesis.

"volcanoes put various gases into the atmosphere, affecting it that way lava flows and pyroclastic flows can destroy forests" https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20131210092508AAaMaTA "Earth's Systems are land, water and air. When an underwater volcano erupts, lava can flow in the water (ocean) to form new land. That's an example of how these different systems interact. Also, gasses are released during an eruption which will go in the air." http://openstudy.com/study#/updates/523ba755e4b0fbf3cc7b5d8e
