Duncan Porter, a tourist from Bristol, shared compelling photos comparing the Rhône glacier in the Swiss Alps from 2009 and 2024, revealing dramatic glacier melt. Initially captured from a now-closed hotel, the stark transformation, showing dwindling ice and an expanded lake, moved Porter to tears. This visual, which went viral, underscores rapid climate change impacts, intensified by carbon emissions. Switzerland has lost one-third of its glacier volume since 2000, prompting both awe and a call to action from viewers worldwide.
