I can't even describe how trully remarkable this music is... thanks!
Excellent photography and very strong words. Thanks, Atlantic!
Stunning cinematography.
This is an amazing video, high quality, sad truth about what’s going on with glaciers around the planet
This video is very true, I’ve seen it firsthand for myself. It’s much more dramatic when seen in person on the ground. It doesn’t matter whether you deny the science however the consequences may ultimately be difficult to live with.
Yeah. I´ve seen it also in the Alps happening, at one of the Northeastern Glaciers. The changes every year can be seen if you look closely, and every Year the Glacier looses over 1,5 metres in thickness. Sad but true.
Doesn't matter. Living with modern technlogy and a wild climate still beats living pre indutrial era with a stable climate. People don't have a clue. This isn't a tradgedy, it is something of the most exiting and interesting events of our time.
@@TroenderTass how about this? We live with modern technology in a stable climate?
This is so hauntingly beautiful. It genuinely brought me to tears!
R.I.P Glacier.
RIP all glaciers, its happening all around the world, and its soul crushing to witness.
I don't know what horrifies me the most; the fact that it's happening or that I'm alive to see it happen... In both cases, it has profound psychological effect that we but ignore.
pffft....
warming climate = good
cooling climate = bad
carbon has NOTHING to do with it.
Glaciers are not melting now.... They are growing again.
This guy knows nothing!
Get over yourself.
@@bipolatelly9806 sides, nobody is doing a damn thing about the Tons co2 that Mother Nature pumps into the atmosphere daily.

....fortunately you are here to reminde us!
I grew up in Alaska and returned a few years ago and was shocked by the changes in the size of the Glaciers. It’s alarming what is happening to the Glaciers and the wildlife depending upon them for their lives. Thanks for bringing awareness to this issue.
This is simply the natural ebb and flow of the planet.

Your comment leads me perplexed. On one hand I'm thinking you're just being flippant and tongue in cheek with your comment. Kudos! 😂
On the other hand, and perhaps this is probably closer to reality, you're an idiot that will believe anything somebody with PhD behind their name tells you, and is totally devoid of any common sense or historical perspective when it comes to earth's changing climate. The Earth has been warming for hundreds of years what you're seeing in the video is a natural occurrence. If you want to know what affects the climate of this planet look up. See the big yellow ball in the sky? Yes, the Sun! That is what causes the majority of climactic changes and variations in weather on our planet. The radiational inflections from our Star, in conjunction with magnetic pull from Hit and the planets in our solar system, affect everything on our planet!
In closing, as Ben Franklin said, "It is better to have common sense with no education, then education with no common sense."
So you got to ask yourself, am I up for a little research and the application of critical thinking in order to bring myself to a more logical conclusion on this topic, or am I just going to be a typical dumbass sheeple? It's up to you as to whether you're going to come out of the darkness or or continue to be a mushroom with b******* up to your neck!
Cheers!

And by the way, glaciers in Greenland her growing. Just thought I'd leave you with that!
The glaciers in greenland grow every year but not enough to equalize the amount lost. When 99% of scientists agree that climate change is caused by humans, and the evidence points to it, yes I’ll believe it.
@@beyanoire5054 believe politically-motivated b******* if you want to! Can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink! You don't even know when you're being duped!
@@edgeiger1514 The glaciers in Glacier National Park are growing too.
This is an absolutly beautiful film excellent job.
what makes people think that this is not normal? he says this is something that "normally" takes thousands of years to happen. Its proven that the landscape under ice was green before. why is that?
It would seem that the massive glacier sighted by Bering and also the Vancouver expedition in the 1700’s that had completely melted by the time John Muir visited in 1888 doesn’t fit the narrative so it wasn’t mentioned. The climate has never stopped changing.
And yet it is changing at an incredibly fast pace right now. "The climate has always been changing" is not a valid argument against man-induced climate change. Human activity is exponentially increasing the rate as which these things happen. Ignorance must be bliss, because this is not a blissful discussion
The Lord Byron quote was a nice touch...
3:38 - this is what I hope those older than me will think about, because most of them seem like they can't see beyond their relatively few years left on earth.
My brain said that the little problem is gasses from vehicles passing by or maybe factories closer to the places, those gasses making the ozone layer thinner
I'd imagine the catastrophic melting of the Laurentide and Cordilleran ice sheets were a sight to mourn. I believe the epoch we evolved in is a Glacial staid. Glaciers are supposed to melt now.
Great video guys. Very well done. I just visited Seward and hiked exit glacier. The recession feels different in person, but great job at bringing it to the masses
It had a good run.
Is the music an original composition? If not I'd love to know what it is!
Russ Christie The music is called 'The King' by Tony Anderson, it is available to listen to on RUclips.👍
Do you where this glacier was before the Little Ice Age? Perhaps you get photographs or videos from this time.
I lived in Alaska for years. It breaks me to see this happening. I used to "collect" glaciers around the state and visited many. Glacial loss (Mendenhall) will remove the water supply from Juneau. The only glacier that is advancing (for now) is the Matanuska Glacier near Palmer,. Global warming is changing the Earth forever. (sighs)
It's not advancing ... it's a valley glacier so it moves at 1ft/year, but is calving at that same rate, and thinning very rapidly. And the beautiful ice caves and crevices are growing at an unprecedented rate, at the expense of total ice mass.
What is the Name of glacier
The sad part about it is the ones who have the final say don't believe
Relax. The glacier will disappear and forests will grow instead. It happened thousands of times before but you and I were not here to witness it. Straiten your act, sit back and enjoy nature.
How long does it take a glacier to form?
Where can I find the beautiful music used in this video?
Tony Anderson - The King
Thanks!
Good ( i am a student university of a cambridge, U. K.)
Goodbye, glacier.
Created by hundreds of thousands of years of creation...
Wiped out in just over 200 years.
Almost noone would miss you
Macky Cabangon just wait for the negative effect and almost everybody will miss glacier
Now hang on. Has the glacier disappeared or not? I see footage of glaciers and footage of water?
Did you see the road sign at 1:56? Have you seen photos of Muir glacier 1941 vs today? Will you be the one to say, "there are still glaciers so not my problem"?
We didn’t listen-we didn’t listen
There needs to a machine that produces colds to rebuild the glaciers.
Don't worry, if the glacier doesn't come back in the winter, it will come back in the next ice age.
rip
Sad.
Lifelong Alaska pilot: my observations are far different from this guy. Far less gloom and doom. But I’m not trying to raise money from sheep.
this is our own fault! and still nothing's been done, this is so sad , we are heading on the path of extinction.
And how exactly are we too help?
By choosing what you consume, simple as that.
By not denying the science. By electing officials that don't deny this is happening. By making choices in what and how we buy to lower our impact.
this will at lest help you understand what Global Warming is.
a lot of the stuff that makes pollution is massive companies (war on terror) might become a war on pollution like people bombing pollution factorys?? to save there grand kids... www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/global-warming/global-warming-overview/
Make sensible choices yourself.......nowhere more than in the voting booth. Don’t elect the scientifically illiterate and ignorant. Or those bought off to act that way.
For a start, that means no Creationists.
;(
Amazing that young people don't protest this like they do the anti Trump stuff. Global warming is going to be catastrophic.
NOTHING CAN BE DONE..
I think yo should make music videos instead of talking. Otherwise mood music is getting old. Leave it out.
you are part of the problem, we all are
All cause of peoples greed
Wtf this is all over my recommended why
Have You divested from wall Street yet?Your pension is by far the biggest co2 footprint thaty you can change. Will you? Then dont use violins!
Huh
Buh-bye, glacier. Yeah, usually works that way. Ice melts. So, what. All in nature is exactly as it should be. Fret not, nature evolves, adapts, renews.
get over it, nature changes..
You should get over your fear and ignorance first. Nature changes, but not like this naturally. Don't be a fearful douche and moron. Educate yourself to the facts .
CO2 is NOT the problem...the heat is coming from our Core....
