She could take it back

She will take it back someday........

For all the Pink Floyd fan's, these lines will probably jar the memory as being the refrain for their song "Take it Back' from Division Bell. For all those who are not familiar, the video of the song shows Nature striking back for all that we are put her through.


While this theme isn't new, it had never seem so realistic before. With rising concern over global warming, changing weather patterns, alarmingly receding glaciers and an increase in devastating natural disasters - the threat of Nature taking it all back seems to be more a reality then the theme of a song.

We used to read in the school about the possible results of ice caps melting. Today I wonder of there will much of the ice cap left to read about in the text books in future. Here is some before and after looks at the known glaciers. Well, I am off to build the Ark folks!
