New map projects 215,000 glaciers' fate; Alps' largest glacier gone by 2092 under 4°C warming

A Swiss-developed interactive tool projects that half of the world's glaciers will collapse by 2100, based on current climate trajectories. The projection is a scientific model, not an observed event, and its accuracy depends on future emissions. This underscores accelerating climate change impacts and potential sea-level rise, with implications for coastal infrastructure and policy.
