    Wow, nature is wonderful and what a privilege to be on the ice with such an experienced guide as Killian. I read that the Swiss glaciers reduced by 6% just last year alone. Now the forest fire rages not so far away. Humans have a lot to answer for. Thanks for taking us on another amazing trip Sylvia and Killian 💚

I would say on the other hand that human beings must try their best and respect nature. Thank you for the exciting adventure, Sylvia and Killian. You've been a good, enjoyable guide, Killian! Take good care! ☕🍀

    The same in Großglockner. Austria Gross Knokler glecher . I saw myself -😥Glacier In recent years (since 2005) the melting has gained momentum, if this continues, the glacier of the Großglockner will soon disappear. The researchers fear that most of the ice will have disappeared from the Alps before the end of this century if the climate in the region continues to warm at its current rate.

    It's going to be exciting to see what the archaeologists discover when the glacier melts. I've been hearing about clothing, tools and other artefacts revealing previous civilisations in a warmer periods. Before the next cold weather historical change. Just as we are going through warm weather change now . Very exciting. Historically food production increases when the world heats up. Changes are part of life. It just depends when we are born in history doesn't it?
