Thank goodness the government heeded the warnings of glaciologists and geologists and evacuated the village before the collapse.

And just think, with the current administration we can expect these types of events to get even more common, as the Trump administration is getting rid of as many environmental protections as possible. Not to mention trying to actually disincentivize things like electric cars, both hurting the environment as well as hurting US industry.
