‘It made me cry’: photos taken 15 years apart show melting Swiss glaciers
Married couple from Bristol attract awe and abuse on X with photos that show ‘staggering’ changes in the Alps
A tourist has posted “staggering” photos of himself and his wife at the same spot in the Swiss Alps almost exactly 15 years apart, in a pair of photos that highlight the speed with which global heating is melting glaciers.
Duncan Porter, a software developer from Bristol, posted photos that were taken in the same spot at the Rhone glacier in August 2009 and August 2024. The white ice that filled the background has shrunk to reveal grey rock. A once-small pool at the bottom, out of sight in the original, has turned into a vast green lake.
“Not gonna lie, it made me cry,” Porter said in a viral post on social media platform X on Sunday night.
You're viewing a single thread.
They obviously took one picture in the summer and one in the winter... 😒 But enjoy your antifa money 🤣🤣🤣
August 2009 and August 2024, but enjoy your... I don't even know? MAGA money?
Petah, what kind of money do users who suck the dicks of oil companies like?
Covered in cum presumably
Not sure if this is supposed to be a joke comment or just weird.
That is not how glaciers work. Please educate yourself.
https://www.usgs.gov/faqs/what-glacier
"A glacier is a large, perennial accumulation of crystalline ice, snow, rock, sediment, and often liquid water that originates on land and moves down slope under the influence of its own weight and gravity."
perennial - "lasting or existing for a long or apparently infinite time; enduring or continually recurring."
No way I'm taking bribes from "Big Antifa"!
But enjoy your antifa money 🤣🤣🤣
You know you are on an anarchist instance right?
I tried to reference them
Damn, son. You're a masochist.
Oh I didn't see that before. Ok I find the joke funny.
