The volcanic eruption in Iceland  a few days back and its impact on International travel and other business interests in Iceland  is a warning on shape of things to come out of the various scenarios of the Chaos Theory .

The fabled North Atlantic  Air Route had to be shut down for days together  fearing flying ash from the volcanic eruptions causing major disruptions to both business and leisure travel plans . A first of its kind ,  major airlines will have to now factor such contingencies into their operational plans . Remember Tsunami and  the recent snow storms which hit the eastern Sea Board of the US .  Air Travel is no longer insulated from such acts of nature . We have advanced technology to make Air Travel faster and safer but we are yet to fathom the intricacies of Mother Nature and her unpredictable ways  of demonstrating her might .

May be we are taking a lot of liberties with nature . Global warming , depletion of ozone layer , deforestation , and over exploitation of marine assets  and above all the extinction  of rare flora and fauna due to man made reasons , all add to the nature’s fury in retaliation .

The present crisis could be a wake up call  to respect NATURE in all its majesty and glory  for a sustainable and habitable world .
