The usual refrain that we'll hear everywhere....

Easy to say for such low-income countries

But everyone said the same thing about La Bérarde... and that village had been there for centuries!
So, no...

Today, extreme event are skyrocketing. and that's clearly the hazard that is increasing!

Uttarakhand floods, India 🌧️💧

Another video showing arrival of the flash flood on the Dharali village (2540 m) which triggered landslides and buried half of the buildings... 🏠🌊

Terrible. 😭

During glacial retreat, the main contribution to sediment flux is from moraine remobilization (compared to bedrock erosion)! 🔥📈🌊

Continents are drying! 🔥 🧊 💧

- 75% of the population lives in 101 countries that have been losing freshwater.
- the continents now contribute more freshwater to sea level rise than the ice sheets
- drying regions now contribute more than land glaciers and ice caps

Several significant rockfalls occurred on Cima Falkner, 2999 m (Brenta Dolomites) last Sunday on both its W and E faces! 🏔️ 🔥

The entire peak appears to be affected by an ongoing morphogenetic phenomenon, likely related to degradation of permafrost

Soon, the Pyrenees lighthouse will cease to shine and will no longer light up the night! 🔥🧊

The Aneto glacier here to the R is the largest in the range (0.34 km²) and is less than 11 m thick.
It will be gone in less than 9 yrs! 📈

This is the main town of the Baksan valley (35 km east of Elbruz, 5642m) which was already hit on July 18, 2000, by a deadly mudflow (8 fatalities, 40 missing, 930 resettled from damaged houses!)

Meltwater bursts through Greenland ice in first-of-a-kind eruption Satellite images reveal how a subglacial lake erupted through the Greenland ice sheet – a phenomenon never witnessed before which could be driven by rising temperatures

Seeing this carefree scene, it's hard to believe this natural monument is about to cut in the icefall at the top of the image! 😰

Man's hold over living and non-living things has destroyed Beauty.

I dream of the day when destroying such natural monuments will be a crime and can be prosecuted.

It will come.
Too late.

Screenshot from polarportal.dk, a website that makes research on the Arctic research conducted by Danish institutions available to the public and researchers. The image shows Greenland in tan and the Greenland Ice Sheet in red and white. The red part indicates melting and covers all except about 20% in the northeast, which is roughly the area higher than 2500 m above Se level. Below the map is a chart that compares 2025 melting to the 1981-2010 average. The average melting peaks in mid-July at about 35%. For the last few days, melting has occurred over roughly 80% of the area of Greenland, with a maximum melt area of 80.6% on 24 July 2025. This is the highest value in our dataset, which starts in 1981.

Stunning visualisation of glacier retreat (Glacier Blanc, Ecrins massif) over 1984-2024 that goes hand in hand with 'greening' (vegetation moving upward) of the glacier forefield! 📈 🌱 🌿
