Fortunately/Unfortunately

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately very few tourists could afford the cost of visiting the island, so there wasn't much actual litter to worry about.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, with a drop in demand, there was no longer any way of transporting rubbish off shore, or bringing in goods and water from the outside world, so the island was abandoned.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, that allowed the island's ecosystem to restabilize.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, where there are volcanoes there are active faultlines and so the poor island was subjected to earthquakes, a cyclone or two and then another volcanic explosion.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, no one was harmed as no one was living on the island.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately there was nobody to film or document the events, leading to a gap in knowledge which could have affected the nearest islands.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, there remained a record that the island ever existed at all, and the findings of the scientific team which once lived on the island.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, the scientific findings were mixed with the very unscientific journals of multiple residents.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, those "multiple" but illegal residents could make a fortune from the newspapers selling stories about their stay on the island.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, these lead to actual illegal residents on the island again.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately as there was little running water on the island, the illegal residents had to move away before they became ill.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, the displaced residents needed a new place to live now.

Fortunately, the displaced residents found plenty of accommodation by returning to the countries where they came from.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, the residents were unable to find jobs that paid well enough to afford the new accommodations.

Fortunately, displaced residents did find sufficiently cheap and adequate accommodation in gaol when the authorities decided they had committed many offences by their illegal immigration.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, prison is a horrible place to be sequestered and was not a suitable location to live.
