A ski lift atop Germany's highest mountain is being torn down — not because it's worn out, but because the glacier beneath it has melted away.⁣ ⁣ After more than 50 years of service, demolition has begun on the Zugspitze's Schneeferner glacier, where the ski slope has simply disappeared due to rising temperatures. ⁣ ⁣ It’s a stark reminder that climate change isn't a distant threat. In the Alps, it's already reshaping the landscape — and the livelihoods that depend on it. ⁣ ⁣ #Zugspitze #Germany #Glaciers #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #Alps #ClimateCrisis #Environment #BavarianAlps
