Yep, Yellowstone blowing will almost certainly reduce the Earth's population by a few billion, if not cause all out extinction of the human race, scary but absolutely true. But there's other things due to happen too... an asteroid hit is just as likely (statiscally speaking based on data from past hits) and will have a similar effect. La Palma is also due to erupt at some point and wipe out the eastern seaboard of the US in a never before seen massive tsunami that will make the one in SE Asia look like a ripple on a pond. At very least we have mass weather disasters caused by climate change to look forward to within our lifetimes (regardless of what's causing it).
