I went to Iceland last year, and our guide told us that the glacier we were about to hike was half a km (1600 feet) closer to the trail head 10 years ago.

Same story in norway. Just in my kids lifetime the glacier have recesses over five hundred meters. glacier.nve.no/Glacier/viewer/CI/en/nve/…/2297?na…

Somewhere, some right-wing nut is going to take these pictures and say they were faked by "some entity". Then it will be shared a million times to support their view that they are being lied to and climate change is a hoax.

Thing is, they already have their explanation: Alpine glacial recession was caused by mountain warfare in WW1, beacuse they blew literal hole in there. That destabilised it.
