minus-squareHello_there@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up0·2 months agoHe doesn’t understand glaciers. Glaciers are made from snow piling up over centuries. Some of it melts each winter, but over time, the glacier should stay about the same. If this glacier is melted, that means it’s been more melting than building back up for the last century. It’s a sign of global warming.
