As mountain glaciers shrink, the world’s resources also disappear

❄️ Mountain glaciers are melting faster than ever, and the world is losing critical resources with them • Glaciers are losing 267 gigatons of ice each year • Melt rates since 1970: Alps 65%, Himalayas 40%+, Alaska/Yukon 30%+ • At 2°C warming, 60–70% of glaciers could vanish • By 2050, at least 30 million people may be displaced due to glacier-related water loss
