If the methane blast trigger volcanic activity or causing the release of carbon dioxide, it could lead to terrible disasters, because two million people live in the Valley of Lake Kivu.

The Lake has been polluted by about 4.44 eksabecquerel (EBq) keradioaktifan, which covers 3.6 EBq Cesium-137 and 0.74 EBq Strontium-90. As a comparison, the Chernobyl nuclear disaster issued 5 to 12 EBq keradioaktifan, but this radiation is not concentrated in one place. Radiation levels in the area surrounding the Lake in 1990 was estimated at about 600röntgen per hour, which can kill humans within an hour
