Description
Summary:With their lunar landscapes, fiery furnaces and ash deserts, volcanoes are symbols of destruction and desolation. Yet millions of men and women now live near these time bombs. Because beneath volcanoes lie some of Earth's most amazing treasures. Japanese fertile lands with unparalleled yields, water reservoirs irrigating the whole of Sicily, deposits of precious materials such as the sulfur of an Indonesian volcano or clean and sustainable sources of energy in New Zealand: all attest of the immeasurable wealth hidden beneath the brimstone giants. However, the treasures of volcanoes are hard-earned; they are only awarded to the bravest and most steadfast of peoples.
