Over the years, glaciers have been melting more and more rapidly and even though some say there is no effect on the average person, there very much is.
With glaciers melting at such an expansive rate, the sea levels are rising elevating coastline levels and weather patterns everywhere.
Why are there so many intense storms these days? Melting glaciers slow oceanic currents which alters the weather!
Many animals have also been impacted for natural habitats have disappeared which has caused many species to become extinct.
Finally, there is the loss of freshwater with glaciers as 68.7% percent of fresh water is stored in glaciers. Obviously, fresh water is very important for survival.
