🚨 Climate Crisis Alert: Peru’s Andes glaciers are melting fast! In just over 50 years, they’ve shrunk by 56% because of human-caused climate change.
Why it matters? These glaciers feed rivers that millions depend on for drinking water and irrigation. As they vanish, communities face growing uncertainty over their water supply. 😟
New research released this year warns that dwindling ice could seriously disrupt water security across the region. These glaciers aren’t just scenic views; they’re lifelines for Peru’s future. 🌎💧
