  recycled...

  Thought I'd let you know -- I did a little reading around, and it turns out this was first said by a scientist, Lonnie Thompson -- to Maren Dougherty :National Geographic Adventure July 27, 2004

  "Glaciers serve as the canaries in the coal mine. I grew up in West Virginia, where coal mining was an important part of the state's economy. Coal miners would take canaries down in a cage. If the canary died, they would get out of the mine, because it meant methane gas was building up in the system."

  thanks for the quote.
