Glacier Melting

As the global temperature is rising, a number of glaciers and permafrost are melting, releasing microbes trapped in the icy grip for centuries. Among them is a roughly 50,000-year-old 'zombie virus', which has been revived.

The study also said that these bacteria could include potentially harmful pathogens.

Himalayan Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is threatening rapid fall down due to permafrost melting brought by global warming, as per a research published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment.

Glaciologists say that the river has the potential to substantially affect the way the glacial ice above it flow and melts.

The scary new study has alerted us about the rapid disintegration of one of the biggest glaciers in the world.

Every year, as the weather warms, teams of Indian scientists trek the Himalayan mountains to study the Chhota Shigri glacier in Himachal Pradesh.

The melting of Greenland ice sheet is expected to cause an increase in the global sea level by approximately 10 inches, a study has said.

The glaciers in Switzerland have shed half their volume since the early 1930s, a new study has said. It said that the retreat of the ice structures is accelerating at a time when there are growing concerns about climate change.

Global warming has created a number of issues, like rising temperatures, resultant glacier melting and inundation of coastal areas due to rising sea levels. But in Italy, it has led to a drought-like situation in the famous Po River.

The Nepal government is contemplating shifting the base camp of Mount Everest as global warming and human activity are making the current location unsafe, a senior official said in Kathmandu on Friday.

Claims that the Himalayan glaciers are rapidly melting and their disappearance will have catastrophic consequences, with India's rivers drying up, are false and alarmist says a new paper

Chile said Saturday it is creating a vast national park to protect hundreds of glaciers that are melting due to climate change.

Glaciers in the Karakoram region are in a stable condition, but those feeding the Ganga and the Brahmaputra river basins are melting at a faster rate, the Earth Sciences Ministry has said.

Africa's fabled eastern glaciers will vanish in two decades, 118 million poor people face drought, floods or extreme heat, and climate change could shrink the continent's economy by 3% by mid-century, the U.N. climate agency warned on Tuesday.
