The Blue Pond of Hokkaido

How would you react to a lake that features green and blue water that has a shimmering feature? You would be surprised… like us! This lake is located in Hokkaido, Japan, and tends to change each time the seasons do. Even though this lake is artificial, it was initially created to be a reservoir. Researchers believe the color of the water comes from high levels of aluminum hydroxide particles existing in the water. This helps the water to reflect light very well.

When we hear of a volcano and lava coming from it, it is usually red and hot and should be avoided at all costs. There is a unique volcano that spits blue lava, which is a result of excess sulphuric gases that come from a sulfur mine inside the volcano. It is not lava, but its existence is really toxic to the natural air we ought to breathe. Mineworkers have to go through this every day, and the blue liquid that flows is really killing them with each passing day. But, what other options do they have?
