Glaciers, the fragile mirrors of climate change

Glaciers are melting at an alarming rate. This is anything but good news for our planet. The influx of water from melting glaciers is disrupting the water cycle and raising sea levels, threatening coastal areas. The International Year of Glaciers’ Preservation, declared by the United Nations for 2025, is an opportunity to reflect on the consequences of this phenomenon. It is only through a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions that this major issue can be effectively addressed.
