Qu’est-ce qui se crée de nouveau lorsque les glaciers fondent ? Comment la société civile réagit-elle ?
Après les glaciers
Climat — 12/06/2025

Comment s’adaptent la nature et les personnes ? Voilà le type de questions qui seront abordées dans la revue thématique Alpenscène n° 112.

les refuges alpins sont pris d’assaut, les excursions sur les glaciers affichent complet, et les artistes plasticien·ne·s se tournent à nouveau de plus en plus vers les glaciers. Aujourd’hui, ce n’est plus la beauté dramatique des géants de glace d’autrefois qui est au centre de l’art, mais leur effrayante disparition – et avec elle le deuil de la perte, l’an
goisse des changements à venir et l’espoir de protection.

There once was a village so quaint,
By a glacier, it met a sad fate,
Buried in ice, it was lost,
People mourned the cost,
In sorrow, they couldn't abate.

**Nearly 40% of the world’s glaciers are already doomed, scientists say**
"_Researchers estimate glaciers will eventually lose 39% of their mass relative to 2020, a trend that is already irreversible no matter what comes next and will likely contribute a 113-millimeter increase to global sea level rise._"

On May 28, the Birch Glacier collapsed, destroying most of the village of Blatten (VS). A tragic event — but not isolated. In just two years, Switzerland has lost 10% of its glacier volume.
The theme of the Levers Swiss Venture 2025, "water and glaciers", has never felt more urgent.
At Levers for Climate, we turn climate emergency into collective action.
Protecting the Alps means protecting our future.

Greenland’s melting ice caps reveal the true extent of climate change.
In recent decades Greenland – 80% of which is covered with ice – has recorded a loss of frozen mass that outpaced previous estimates by 20%.
This rapid reduction not only has consequences for Greenland’s inhabitants, but also on a global scale, as it affects rising sea levels and the balance of the planet’s climate systems.

A Swiss mountain slope bursting and unleashing a cascade of rocks and ice over an idyllic Alpine village last week was a chilling image, but also the symbol of a well-managed climate crisis. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2025/06/04/climate-change/swiss-glacier-climate-disaster-management/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #environment #climatechange #switzerland #climatechange #landslides #glaciers #disasterpreparedness
N.L. couple studying Icebergs at the source — Greenland
David Holland is a mathematician and climate scientist at New York University who grew up in St. John’s. He studies the changing glaciers of Greenland and how it affects other parts of the world. He and his partner, Denise Holland, are on an expedition in Greenland and spoke with the CBC’s Carolyn Stokes from the Ilulissat Icefjord.
