Having flown in and out of DXB many times at day and at night - I used to marvel at the creation of the various projects in the Gulf. However knowing a little about the topography of the Gulf, I really worried about the impact on the environment - both on the destination of the build and the original source of the sand. This is a major ecological change.
Now this most spectacular project of Man has bitten the dust. A stark reality of the real world not quite living up to the hype.
The Times (of London) was not so sanguine - it savaged the folly of the project.
While it is sad to see what was arguably one of the most interesting of all projects - it is definitely a lesson on the perils of going beyond the boundaries.
All quite sad recently.
Cheers
