  2. 💁🏻‍♀️ ICYMI: 🤖🧊 Polar researchers use an #underwater #robot named Icefin to map melting beneath #Antarctica's #Thwaites #Glacier.

    By measuring #ocean dynamics where #ice and #water meet, scientists gather #data needed to protect coastal communities and plan for future sea level shifts.

    « On voyait d’immenses pans de #glacier s’effondrer dans la mer, et on avait juste envie de pleurer. Mais tous les touristes applaudissaient. Et vous vous disiez… “Vous ne voyez vraiment pas le lien ?” »

  9. Múlajökull

    Iceland’s Múlajökull glacier is prone to sudden surges, where rapid ice flow is interspersed between periods of quiescence or retreat. The isolated nature of the glacier and its marshy surroundings make approaching on foot almost impossible, but photographer Dani Guindo captured gorgeous aerial images of the glacier’s many rivulets ribboning about the landscape it’s carved.

    “You’d see massive #glacier calvings, and you’d just want to cry. But all the guests would be cheering. And you’d be like … ‘can you not put two and two together?’”

    “As we navigate the intensifying impacts of the 2026 El Niño, the vulnerability of our global food systems require careful evaluation. With this year’s erratic weather patterns driving severe, prolonged droughts in some regions and unseasonal, devastating floods in others, the climate crisis is proving that it is not a distant threat; it is happening right now, in our fields and on our plates.
    This crisis is more visible in the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region. Often called the “water tower of Asia,” this vast mountain range sustains 240 million people across eight countries and provides essential ecosystem services to nearly 2 billion people downstream. When glaciers melt at accelerated rates and monsoons become unpredictable, the narrative often focuses solely on the mountain communities. But the truth is much broader: a disrupted harvest in the high hills of Nepal or Bhutan creates a domino effect. It leads to displaced populations, reduced agricultural output flowing into the Indus, Ganges, and Brahmaputra basins, and ultimately, skyrocketing food prices for families living in the sprawling downstream plains.
    The climate crisis respects no borders and recognizes no difference between altitude and sea level. Because this problem affects us all, the solution must protect us all. Fortunately, the means to overcome this challenge are already in our hands, locked within the ancient seeds of the mountains…”

    Devastating glacier melt in the Alps

    "GLAMOS reported that by 29 June 2026, the winter snow reserve had been completely exhausted. From that date onwards, all glacier ice across Switzerland has been melting."
