The interior of Nauru tells the story of the phosphate era in a way no museum can. The mined-out landscape is a moonscape of white coral pinnacles rising like jagged teeth from barren ground. Eighty percent of the island's interior was strip-mined. From the air, Nauru looks like a fried egg : a green coastal ring around a devastated white center. The pinnacles are beautiful in a post-apocalyptic way, and they are permanent. You cannot put topsoil back on coral.
