‘Dramatic’ acceleration: Switzerland has lost 10% of its glaciers in the last two years.

Glaciers across the entire country were affected, with those in southern and eastern Switzerland melting almost as much this year as in the record year 2022.

The biggest decline since measurements began was seen in 2022, followed by the second biggest this year, the Swiss Academy of Sciences and Glacier Monitoring Switzerland announced today.
