Melting Glaciers

Post by wirbel »

Not sure if everybody's tired already of the whole global warming thing lately; i think it's good that there's some attention for that; even if there's people who deny it or find it 'overrated' ;) I think it's only normal that we look at the way we're using natural resources in our own life..

I came across a shocking picture of a glacier in Norway we've visited a couple of times and then posted my own picture on flickr.com as a comparison. As you can see in the comments on the second picture, the main retreat has been in a period of only 42 days; I think this is mainly because of the warm autumn we're having in Europe.

Also interesting was the news about an icecave that maybe disappearing the next year. Too bad, cause I still hope to visit it some time (allthough it's a long hike :D)
