Swiss glaciers suffer 'disastrous' year of ice loss, threatening water supplies
Swiss glaciers experienced significant ice loss in the past year, with some reports indicating a loss of more than 5% of their ice mass[1, 2]. This loss has been described as "disastrous" and is attributed to a record heatwave[2, 3]. Scientists have noted that such rapid melting is consistent with the current pace of climate change[3]. The consequences of this ice loss could impact future water supplies[3].
