Human are solving problems by making little crutches 🩼
Bandaids on a wooden leg!

For glacier preservation, tarps came first ❄️

See how futile they look under the eye of artist Thomas Wrede 📷

@bonnaud_dowell @subfossilguy @pinpinmag @MONTBLANC_NR @IGE_Grenoble The best view would be from the terrace, that's where most pictures come from :)

Quantitative data on thickness change are provided by @IGE_Grenoble GLACIOCLIM observation service (CNRS/UGA/OSUG/IGE): https://t.co/XBin4O2l5k

Thanks to Compagnie du Mont Blanc for webcams (@MONTBLANC_NR ) and to Jean-Michel Friedt and @IGE_Grenoble for archiving.

[Beyond EPICA @OldestIce]

For all these years, it was just a name, a hope, a dream. Now the water stable isotope measurements confirmed that we have officially surpassed EPICA Dome C as the oldest continuous ice core record!
We are truly Beyond EPICA!
Merry Christmas to everyone!

Remember Rhône glacier viral post? 👇

Comments below this tweet (viewed 4.6 M times!) reflect the abysmal level of ecological awareness on Twitter

This is how Mer de Glace behaved during almost the same 15yr interval (2007-2022):
~80 m thinning at 1800 m asl!

Launched today: annual updates of key indicators of global climate change.

Using methods from the latest @IPCC_CH assessment and the latest available data, we paint a picture of where the planer is heading under climate change. (1/n)

🌡️Le réchauffement climatique se fait déjà ressentir au quotidien. Pour le visualiser, nous avons réalisé, avec @math_lehot et @maxloisel, un tableau de bord inédit, mis à jour quotidiennement ⤵️ https://t.co/kMR07IJzEM

[Ed Hawkins @ed_hawkins]

Very dry last few weeks for France.
Of course, it would be much better if @meteofrance allowed free & open access to all their historical weather station observations so that anyone could look at how unusual this is.
But they don't. C'est la vie.

Downwasting of the glacier tongue has triggered an impressive landslide in the right lateral moraine since 2009 🪨❄️
