Tales from Global Warming

When the ice and snow finally melt up here, what will be discovered underneath. Here we can see a toaster oven rising, Phoenix-like, from a snow where it was lost in white silence, seemingly forever. Yet, now in this age of rapid global climate change, what chance does it have to remain in quiet anonymity. Nay, what chance do any of us have if our carbon footprints keep rising and damaging our planet, revealing her hidden scars like this. Look upon this toaster oven and ask not for whom the timer dings, it dings for all of us (or it would, if it wasn't some cheap flea-market knock off that one of the techs booted into the snow back a while back).
