James Brady+FollowGlaciers Are Melting—Here’s Why It MattersImagine waking up to find your water and food supply in danger because the glaciers that feed your rivers are vanishing. That’s the reality for 340 million people in Central and West Asia right now. Scientists are calling it a ‘cascading crisis’—think floods, mudslides, droughts, and crop failures, all thanks to rapidly melting glaciers. There’s a $3.5 billion plan to fight back, but half the glaciers could be gone by 2100. This is climate change in real time! #Science #ClimateCrisis #GlacierMelt00Share
megangibson+FollowGlaciers Are Melting & Even Wildlife Is LostThe Kolahoi glacier is shrinking fast—like, over half a mile gone already! It’s not just about sea levels; streams are drying up, fields are struggling, and even wild animals are wandering into villages because their habitats are vanishing. Locals say the animals look totally confused. Experts warn this is a global trend, and if we don’t act, glaciers everywhere could disappear this century. The UN is making 2025 the International Year of Glaciers’ Preservation to raise the alarm. Would you miss glaciers if they vanished? #Science #ClimateChange #GlacierMelt80Share
Richard Vaughan+FollowGlaciers in Trouble: Melting Fast!Glaciers in Spain’s Pyrenees are melting at record speeds—some are now just stagnant ice! Aneto, the region’s highest peak, has shrunk from 135 to under 30 hectares since 1981. Only 14 glaciers are left, and most are in ‘advanced decline.’ This isn’t just a mountain problem: melting glaciers mean rising sea levels, more floods, and even ancient microbes entering our water. Wild, right? Are you worried about rising oceans? Vote below! #Science #ClimateChange #GlacierMelt00Share
