#glaciers — Public Fediverse posts

Glaciers are going away, some slower, some faster. But we are losing them at an alarming rate. Do you want to know when if the glacier closer to you will vanish? This is a handy database to look for that.

The Nepal and Tibet flood is a warning: melting snow and ice will bring more disasters around the world | Bill McGuire
By Bill McGuire

In Alaska, the Himalayas, the Andes, Greenland, and perhaps also the Alps, deadly chain reactions are just waiting to be triggered

Inside the race to understand Greenland’s ‘climate tipping point’.

An international team of scientists is determined to understand just how quickly Greenland’s melting glaciers are pushing the Atlantic Ocean towards a “critical climate tipping point”.

They’ll also trial a prototype ‘Early Warning System’ for glacier change in Greenland, as ice melt continues to accelerate.
