Did you know that during the last Ice Age, glaciers extended far beyond their current boundaries, covering much of North America and Europe? This historical shift in climate has shaped landscapes, created unique geological features, and caused massive changes in ecosystems, setting the stage for the flora and fauna we see today. In modern times, glaciers are not just beautiful attractions; they are crucial indicators of climate change. As they melt, they provide scientists with vital data about temperature shifts over time. This melting also affects sea levels, fresh water supply, and even weather patterns, meaning the health of glaciers has widespread implications for our planet's future.
