 📈 Ice loss of the Talèfre Glacier in the French Alps between 1967 and 2015 – Copernicus_EU 2️⃣
Instagram
CopernicusEU on Instagram: "❄️ Glaciers across all European regions experienced ice loss in 2024 - a key finding from the European State of the Climate 2024 report by the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S).⁣ ⁣ In the Alps alone, glaciers lost an average of 1.2 metres of ice thickness in 2024. This continues a troubling decade-long trend, with the Alps remaining one of the fastest-retreating glacial regions in the world. 🏔️⁣ ⁣ This image, based on C3S data, shows the Talèfre Glacier in the French Alps. The extent visible in 2015 is significantly reduced compared to 1967.⁣ ⁣ #CopernicusEU⁣ #ImageOfTheDay⁣ #ESOTC2024"
