- Experts say Swiss ice volume has declined by nearly one-fifth over the past five years.
- The percentage decline exceeded 2003’s, although less ice was lost absolutely; today’s volume is roughly one-third of its former level.
- From July through September, 2.2 trillion liters were lost, four times Switzerland’s annual consumption for roughly 9.1 million people.
- Average thickness of individual glaciers fell 2.5 to 4 meters, while some glacier tongues lost up to 10 meters.
The warming that we are experiencing now can be attributed 100% to anthropogenic climate change. It’s as simple as that.— Matthias Huss, head of GLAMOS, in an interview about climate change and glacier melt (ETH Zurich).
