Glaciers in Sweden and Norway are melting rapidly due to climate change, with 2024 being the warmest year in Europe. The average melt is about 1.8 meters, raising concerns among scientists about the potential disappearance of these glaciers. Experts emphasize the importance of glaciers for water supply and ecosystems, warning that the current rate of melting is too fast for ecosystems to adapt. While heavy snowfall has provided temporary relief, it does not change the long-term trend of glacial shrinkage. The loss of glaciers threatens biodiversity and disrupts ecological balances.
