Photo Evidence: Glacier National Park Is Melting Away | National Geographic

Glacier National Park is losing its iconic glaciers to a changing climate. In the mid-1800s, this Montana landscape was covered by 150 glaciers-today only 25 remain. To show the decrease in glacier size, scientists from the USGS Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center photograph the same areas where glaciers were photographed in the early 1900s. Dan Fagre, a USGS research ecologist, has been studying climate change in the park for more than 20 years. Fagre and his colleagues discuss what melting glaciers and climate change mean for the future of the park, which is expected to be nearly glacier free by 2030, based on present warming trends.

[@TheTinLion]

This "warming" is cyclical just like every other place in the world the climate changes. It's normal. This is just the first time it's been documented and they are just trying to scare you. You do realize that 95% of all the global "warming" models that have been used by the U.N. and most it's member nations since the 1990's were all wrong. The data is flawed and biased. Why is Antarctica now much larger than any time in recorded history if the earth is warming? There was an ice age a long time ago, what humans caused that? And did the Neanderthals cause a global "warming" that caused the end of the last ice age? I'm pretty sure the Earth knows what she is doing because she has done it for billions of years. How did the dinosaurs last hundreds of millions of years? All the co2, oooh scary...

[@Over_Toasted]

TheTinLion I called it global warming, actually no one calls it that anymore. It is climate change, and it is now called climate change for a reason.

TheTinLion Also, I did say that melting periods are impossible to avoid, though we can prevent any further damage to our environment. I don't know why you wouldn't want to help the planet you live on.

[@Over_Toasted]

***** You don't have to stop melting completely that's impossible. However, we should prevent glaciers from melting this quickly. Remember, pollution causes many other problems besides climate change alone.

[@Over_Toasted]

***** Do you not realize that it is happening to rapidly, thus raising the water levels? Besides, glaciers melting aren't the biggest concern, so I couldn't care less about them personally. However, we should stop polluting water and air, but environmentalists typically include prevention of climate change as a goal of less pollution, so by default I support that as well..

The signs in the Montana park were added more than a decade ago to reflect climate change forecasts at the time by the US Geological Survey, park spokeswoman Gina Kurzmen told CNN. In 2017, the park was told by the agency that the complete melting off of the glaciers was no longer expected to take place so quickly due to changes in the forecast model, Kurzmen said. But tight maintenance budgets made it impossible for the park to immediately change the signs.

It's nature deal with it and there's nothing we can do about it. If it melts it melts.

[@wolves44445]

But we can change it.

[@bizn0nka]

But, it's happening so fast. Didn't you hear they took shots every other year?

[@janzibrik3551]

This is because 10000-30000 years cycle...nothing to do with people

+Trey Kincaid I love you bro that's exactly what I was thinking. it was just so funny to read it.

[@matthewcowell]

+Herokiller Glaciers are perma-ice... the affects of seasons are very minimal on them.

[@rafaxddant936]

you can clearly tell both pictures were taken in summer. if the older ones were taken in winter, the surrounding rock and landscape would be completely covered in snow.
