As the article points out, the affected area is "one of the most desolate on Earth," but this makes me wonder if other, more populous areas are affected by a similar "boomerang" effect, and if so, what will the long-term ramifications be? The ecosystem mentioned in the article seems to be chugging along, but I have to wonder about the tolerance levels and what will happen if they're exceeded. Will the organisms adapt, or will this area go from desolate to dead?
