We’re building a community of volunteers who:
- help research and communicate glacier science
- support campaigns and creative projects
- shape what Glacierwatch becomes next
If you’ve been quietly following, learning, thinking “someone should do something”...
This is your moment to move from observer to participant.
Send us a DM with “GLACIER” and we’ll share how to get involved
Glacierwatch is looking for those people.
You don’t need to be a scientist. But you should be curious.
You don’t need endless free time. But you should be willing to show up.
You don’t need to have all the answers. But you should care enough to start asking questions.
It’s not too late…
To join us!
Most people care about glaciers.
Some people follow.
A few people step in.
Right now, glaciers are changing faster than we can document, protect, and communicate. And the truth is: a small, committed group of people can make a disproportionate difference.
The Andes don't stop at borders. What happens to Argentina's glaciers affects water systems across the entire region. Once a glacier is gone, it's gone. Water is not a commodity. It's a right.

The government's justification? Unlocking billions in mining investment. Critics call this a false trade-off driven by political convenience over scientific data.
Environmental organizations are now mobilizing what they're calling the largest collective lawsuit in Argentina's history, seeking to have the reform declared unconstitutional on the grounds that it violates citizens' right to a healthy environment
Peak Greed
Argentina dismantled its landmark glacier protection laws.
The consequences could be irreversible.
On April 9, 2026, after nearly 12 hours of debate, Argentina's Chamber of Deputies voted 137–111 to reform the landmark National Glacier Protection Law — a law that, when passed in 2010, made Argentina the first country in the world to legally protect glaciers and periglacial zones as public assets.
The State of the Cryosphere Report 2024 warns that on a trajectory toward 3°C of warming, many regions will experience sea level rise and water resource loss beyond adaptation limits this century.
Geoengineering is not a plan. Decarbonisation is.
