Did you know that already more than 1000 glaciers have disappeared in Switzerland over the last 50 years as a consequence of human-caused climate change?
One of those is Pizolgletscher which I visited today. Always a saddening yet impressive sight...

If we limit global warming to +1.5°C, more than half of non-polar glaciers can be saved.
This is the finding of an international collaborative study that calculated the potential ice loss of more than 200,000 glaciers: ethz.ch/en/news-and-...

Un grand merci à @alpinemag.bsky.social & @zchrf.bsky.social pour avoir mis en lumière les travaux du projet collaboratif Vanishing Glaciers - @riverepfl.bsky.social. Pensées pour nos collaborateurs, porteurs et guides qui ont permis à ces expeditions de voir le jour.
Alors que les glaciers fondent à grande vitesse, un écosystème invisible mais essentiel s’efface avec eux : les microorganismes des rivières glaciaires. Le projet Vanishing Glaciers explore cette biodiversité pour en dresser le 1er atlas mondial avant qu’elle ne disparaisse. ✍️ @zchrf.bsky.social

It's the first International Day of #Glaciers!
The ice worldwide is under threat due to rapid #climatechange. This day puts a spotlight on glaciers as a vulnerable but globally relevant element of the climate system. It is not yet too late to save them!

1/3] Glacier melt is accelerating, depleting freshwater and driving sea-level rise. A global @nature.com study co-authored by several group members shows glaciers have lost 273 billion tonnes of ice per year since 2000, with a sharp increase in the past decade.🌍
