How many active volcanoes are there in the world?

There are about 1,350 potentially active volcanoes worldwide, aside from the continuous belts of volcanoes on the ocean floor at spreading centers like the Mid-Atlantic Ridge.

About 500 of those 1,350 volcanoes have erupted in historical time. Many of these are located along the Pacific Rim in what is known as the 'Ring of Fire.'
