In case you don’t have enough to worry about, apparently an island appeared and then promptly disappeared in British Columbia over the weekend. It seems to be a fully formed island — with, like, full grown trees on it and “nearly the size of two NFL fields” — and not, like, some big rock that popped up because water levels were low or thanks to the mystery of the tides, which is what I assumed when I saw the headline. (Climate change, after all, means that bodies are popping up everywhere now. A nightmare for the mob.)
“No one knows where it came from or where it went, but a massive new island might be floating out somewhere in the Williston Reservoir in northern B.C. The forested land mass caught the attention of B.C.
