Swiss Glacier Collapse Buries Alpine Village, Newly 90% Destruction | Firstpost Planet Pulse | N18G
A massive glacier collapse in the Swiss Alps has devastated the Alpine village of Blatten, burying nearly 90% of it in ice, rock, and mud. One man is missing, and search efforts are ongoing. The Birch Glacier had shown signs of instability for days, prompting the evacuation of 300 residents. Authorities say the collapse involved over three million cubic metres of debris. Experts link the disaster to accelerating glacier melt driven by climate change—Swiss glaciers have lost 10% of their volume in just two years. Officials warn this rare but destructive event may become more common as global temperatures rise. Watch the video to know more.

GLORY TO GOD.
It is possible now that all that ruble mixed with all that glacier ice will start to collapse as the ice melts this might cause small avalanches as the support is being lost underneath the rest of the material still on the mountain. Water will find a way to borrow through the material as the ice will help in the way as it melts and creates empty crevices underneath the ruble
….When "journalists" can't spell…..but want to harp about imagined issues.
There is plenty of new ice forming in the world. This is false reporting. Lots of new Ice in Antarctica on the South Africa side.
Inaccurate reporting. Check facts. The mountainside crumbled and collapsed and fell on the glacier.
Nice try, but the whole mountain has been messing around for ages. Has nothing to do with the climate, so stop the lies. Ever heard of a geological event?
V.sad news
1:33 i thought 164 year old , its 1 person 64 year old
That is why we human must never destroy the nature 🌲or harm it
Ad why does the government doesn’t care about it as it is the most importatnt problem that we are facing since before
Climate change happens every day you can’t stop it it’s natural planet has warmed up on cooled for millions of years an it’s going to keep doing it we have to adapt to it an not not trust the. Governments and the people they pay to spread misinformation that’s how you survive don’t build by rivers an lake or at sea level don’t build on unstable mountain or at the base of one
Sad for the village but it was inevitable, they built in a valley what do you expect. And the earth is not static global warming is also inevitable with or without humans
Sinceramente dispiaciuta, auguro ai loro abitanti, di riprendersi, al più presto 😔😔😔😔
Gaslighting anyone? A huge amount of rock fell on the glacier causing it to collapse. It did not simply collapse from global warming. But then again, how are the climate religionists supposed to scare children into compliance if they can't show them a real," crisis?"
Stop it! Not the glacier. Rock slide above brought it down!
There is no climate change!
More global ice pack than 20yrs ago. Sea level down.
PhDs with low IQ's lying to you
Climate change!???… and what were they blaming these glacier collapses on 150 years ago???
climate change is real
Villages have been getting wiped out in Switzerland for centuries. The solution is don't build your village at the base of a mountain.
Whose fault
Climate change by man had nothing to do with it period.
The space weather has more to do with this rapid climate change.
The climate has been changing since time began, to think we could do things to prevent it is nothing shoemaker of idiotic and arrogant.
❤❤❤
Are we sure it wasn’t “climate change”?
Climate change AP is right
Looks like gravity played a role as well.
Climate change has been going on for billions of years.
There is no safest place on this earth but only in the presence of the Lord. Amen 🙏🙌
