KEY TAKEAWAYS

Glaciers play a crucial role in storing and regulating water, impacting local climate and ecosystems.

The melting of glaciers affects outdoor activities, making mountaineering and skiing more challenging and dangerous.

Glacial research is essential for understanding the impact of climate change and taking action to mitigate its effects.

Athletes have a responsibility to care for the environment and understand the scientific aspects of climate change and its impact on their activities.
