A waterfall of lava is still spewing from a mountain in Spain that first erupted four weeks ago.

The rivers of lava have already swallowed up nearly 2,000 buildings. It's also forced 7,000 people out of their homes.

The volcano is on an island and is still setting off minor tremors every day, shooting plumes of ash several miles high, which also disrupts flights.

Right now, no one knows when the volcano will stop spewing lava.
