GLACIER MELTING: CONTROL AND MITIGATION STRATEGIES

Abstract

This article explores the dire consequences of rapidly melting glaciers in a rapidly warming world. Glaciers, once a vital indicator of climate change, are now retreating at an unprecedented rate due to rising temperatures. The consequences of this destruction extend beyond the cryosphere, affecting global ecosystems, communities and the overall health of our planet. This research explores the multifaceted and often interconnected negative impacts of melting glaciers, from rising sea levels and depleting freshwater resources to the destruction of fragile ecosystems and an increase in extreme weather events. By highlighting these important issues, we highlight the urgency of mitigating climate change and protecting the globe's glaciers
