Alpine village is largely destroyed when a Swiss glacier collapses

Swiss glaciologists have repeatedly expressed concerns about a thaw in recent years, attributed in large part to global warming, that has accelerated the retreat of glaciers in Switzerland.

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.
