Iceland Volcanic Eruption

The last time this volcano erupted was in 2004. In 2010, plumes of ash from Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull volcano caused weeks of air travel chaos across Europe. Officials say that the lastest eruption is unlikely to cause similar effects, but a flight ban has been imposed over the area. 


I think that the flight ban is a great idea because even though it's not as big as last years yet it still could erupt out of nowhere and take out airplanes. Also it should be monitored very closely for any sign of change in the activity, and if there is the people of towns near it should be warned.
