The photo series helps you realize how severe climate change is

The process of climate change is also causing landscapes to change in many places at the same time, but of course in the worst direction.

Climate change, global warming – these are two processes that are happening at breakneck speed and they have huge consequences. One of them is that the ice that covers the Earth every winter is fading.

The process of “tape loss” is so slow that few people realize it is actually happening. So some experts decided to do some research, to document this whole process with before and after photos.

Photos taken from the 5 largest glacial regions in the world. With these images, experts hope people will realize the gravity of what is happening and will soon have to make a decision that works with nature.

The first is Alaska’s Mendenhall Glacier. In just 8 years from 2007 to 2015, the amount of frost lost here reached 550 m.

The same goes for the Solheimajokull river in Iceland. During the same period, the river lost 625 m of ice.-

In Switzerland there are two large glaciers, the Stein Glacier and the Trift River. In 9 years (2006 – 2015), the Stein Glacier “flew” 550 meters.

Even more serious is the impact of climate change on the Trift Glacier. During the same period, more than 1.17 km of ice disappeared.

Finally, the Qori Kalis River in Peru also lost about 1.14 km of ice. However, this process appears to be slower considering the period 1978-2016.

It is certain that many people also know that the loss of frost not only affects the host country, but also leads to many other consequences. This not only raises the sea level, but also has a significant impact on the lives of communities that depend on water when these ice pillars melt.

Not to mention that when the ice disappears, the natural life that exists there will also disappear.

Experts said the reason the fusion process was sped up was that humans were using too much fossil material, causing the Earth to heat up quickly. Despite a lot of talk, but I have to say it again: it is time for people to take serious action to save this Earth.
