The world is filled with jaw-dropping sights, but rapid climate change is threatening some of the most spectacular natural wonders. Here are just a few of the world’s most majestic places that could disappear in as little as a few decades.
The most-visited glacier in North America, Alberta’s Athabasca Glacier
is a part of the Columbia Icefield spanning 2.3 square miles (6 sq km).
Yet the glacier has been melting for the past 125 years, with its
Southern edge retreating nearly a mile in that timeframe. Experts
believe the glacier is now shrinking at its fastest rate yet and is
currently losing anywhere between 6.6 to 9.8 feet a year.
