How has the Iceland volcano affected us?
Recently, a volcano has erupted in Iceland. It has affected us mildly, but scientists are currently predicting that the volcano that has already erupted is still active, and a volcano 50 times bigger next to it might erupt. Don't be frightened, these are just predictions! The active volcano has cut of many airlines flying into Great Britain. Thousands of tourists have been stuck camping out in airports, desperate to get home, and others are awaiting for their plane to take them to their holiday destination to arrive. Also, and I have evidence for this, when the volcano erupted, the day after that I woke up to see grey/black ash all over my car bonnet and windscreen. When the volcano erupted, all the lava leaked into the sea, so it was quite dangerous to take a ferry around that area. As Great Britain is the nearest county to Iceland, we are the most affected country. But the amount of volcanic ash is reducing, and now it is safe to go on a plane and venture round in a boat, but let's just keep our fingers crossed this next volcano won't erupt!
