Funeral for a Glacier

This week Icelanders held a funeral service for the Okjokull glacier, which is shown below:



About 100 people attended the service, which was held at a volcano. Poems were recited. Political speeches made. Moments of silence held. A plaque embedded.

The glacier used to stretch six square miles. Residents reminisced about drinking pure water thousands of years old from the glacier.
