ESA’s CryoSat mission reveals 10 years of glacier ice loss
Thanks to ESA’s CryoSat satellite and a breakthrough way of using its data, scientists have discovered that glaciers worldwide have shrunk by a total of 2% in just 10 years, and it’s because of higher air temperatures.

São perdas imensuráveis!! É mesmo uma consternação…ver os gigantes a cair e a desaparecer!!
What happens when they Re gone? We can watch their decline, how do we hydrate the world?
But you made a pretty bad choice when it came to choosing the music… a more depressive, disturbing sound would have fitted the topic much better.
Nice vid
I wish you the best.

I did read a lot on glaciology, a fact to know about glacier is that these things can collapse under their own weight, happens all the time, and when a collapse occurs the ice goes on warmer area and melt. This % of melted ice isn't mentioned in any vid not even this one.
