Scientists unite to save the planet’s #glaciers

Even with 1.5°C warming analysis suggests that up to half of the world’s 200,000 glaciers will disappear by the end of this century.

In response to the UN declaration of 2025 as the #InternationalYearOfGlaciersPreservation and UN Decade of Action for #Cryospheric Research (2025–2034), an international team of scientists has formed the #GlacierStewardshipProgram.

Study shows glacier shrinkage is causing a 'green transition'

Glacier-fed streams are undergoing a process of profound change, according to EPFL and Charles University scientists in a paper appearing in Nature Geoscience today. This conclusion is based on the expeditions to the world's major mountain ranges by members of the Vanishing Glaciers project.
