According to recent research,

the highest glacier on the world's tallest mountain
is losing
decades' worth of ice
every year due to
human-caused climate change
.

The results serve as a warning that fast glacier melt at some of the Earth's highest peaks might

intensify climatic consequences
, such as more frequent
avalanches and the drying up of water supplies
on which around 1.6 billion people in mountain ranges rely on for drinking, agriculture, and electricity. Ice that originated roughly 2,000 years ago on the South Col Glacier has melted in around 25 years, meaning it has thinned down around 80 times quicker than it developed.

While glacier melt is commonly researched, the researchers contend in their article, published in Nature Portfolio Journal Climate and Atmospheric Science, little scientific attention has been dedicated to glaciers at

the planet's highest altitudes
. This is
unequivocal evidence
that human-caused climate change is harming even
the most remote locations
, and that we must act quickly to
reverse the impacts
.
