BlazeMain road to Grindavík (Iceland) is covered under lava
oce 🐆Boss, you’ll never guess why I can’t make it today.
grrgyleA bunch of my co-workers are situated in Iceland and, you joke, but they have had to leave the office twice because of risk of lava in about a year.
Which seems like a startlingly high number
verity_kindleI like how calmly Icelandic civilians and government workers seem to be coping. I know there are only about 300,000 of them, but they get repeated emergency advisories out faster than one warning would get out in, for example, Oklahoma USA. Anybody who wants to be near Hot Flowy Death right now WANTS to be near it. Source: every time the good citizens of a county in Oklahoma are warned about a (water mixed with trees) flood, there’s always THAT GUY who says the county didn’t do enough to warn HIM and that’s why XYZ happened.
