Blessing in Disguise?
Here is something I read and felt interesting, I m surprised they have not been fined by one of our [pcc] councils for burning without prior consent.
What I can see is definitely true is the extraordinary power of a single volcano to change our lives. A century of planes criss-crossing the skies, cars belching out fumes, and power stations burning fossil fuels, haven’t had a fraction of the effect on our atmosphere as a single week’s output from Eyjafjallajokull.
Now, that’s not an argument for saying we shouldn’t be careful with our environment. It is one for saying that, however profligate we are, our efforts are nothing compared to Mother Nature in an aggressive mood.
When will the Iceland volcano eruption April 2010 stop – Back in the 1800’s when Eyjafjallajkoll erupted, it erupted for fourteen months. Yes, 14 months. Experts don’t think the volcanic activity will continue that long, although there’s been no announcement over when it will end.
What are the names of some of the other Iceland volcanoes? Katla is a big name. Every time that Eyjafjallajkoll has erupted, it’s set off Katla, which is dubbed “angry sister” by the locals.
In addition, the name of Eyjafjallajkoll has been shortened to “E-15” by some individuals which is a much easier pronounciation.
The going has been tough for thousands of air travellers stranded at Delhi and Mumbai after volcanic ash from Iceland disrupted air traffic for six days with some struggling to report back to work and some postponing their dream holidays to Europe.
Though flights to the US and Canada have resumed, a large number of passengers were waiting eagerly for opening of European airports and resumption of flights. ..And some could afford, the train journey...which could take them through places...
Mathew uncle and Aunty on their way to meet Santhosh in US, was stuck in Mumbai, near John. Our Client in Dubai on her way to Europe..
People travelled even from Dubai to Europe on a train, through various coutries and beautiful sites...Risk is like eating rusk for some, Pressure is pleasure.....
What was in my mind is...Mother Nature....bow to thee....Nothing more powerful...Fire or water???
