Mountain glaciers are melting at an accelerating rate. How do we know? 📐 Scientists have been making field measurements of glaciers like this one since the 1960s, as well as using aerial and satellite imagery to track the size of glaciers. In 2022, a survey of 37 mountain glaciers across the globe found that 34 of those glaciers had lost mass. Scientists found that, on average, glaciers lost more than 3 feet (one meter) of ice thickness that year, and that ice loss from mountain glaciers global
