[1/2] Weβve released a new version of the factsheet on #Birchgletscher -- the Swiss glacier that catastrophically collapsed on 28 May 2025 following heavy debris loading from Kleines Nesthorn -- and some first field impressions that we were able to collect yesterday

Every +0.1Β°C of global warming leads to ~2% more glacier ice loss. Sticking to the #ParisAgreement (+1.5Β°C) would preserve over half the ice compared to current policies (+2.7Β°C). This is the result of a new study based, led by Harry Zekollari, Lilian Schuster & several co-authors from our group.
