Why do you idiots keep calling me to your little seasonal sessions of nuttiness.
Probably for the same reasons you post the same right wing hate over and over...

Yes glaciers melt. They melt and they grow. Overall they've been gradually melting for about 8,000 years. They used to stretch all the way down to Kansas from the Arctic.
And every year when the alarmosphere runs out of scary stories to tell you little proggies when you're all snuggled warm in your beds they roll a story out on the melt of some little mountain glacier. Apparently it's supposed to prove something. This one on the Athabasca glacier may have been annual since an Inconvenient Truth.
Often the stories are untrue (Himalayas), sometimes the snow embarrasses them by refusing to let predictions come true (Kilamanjaro), sometimes the claims are not born out by the complexities of the facts
Mount AdamsNone of this you geniuses will know anything about, because you only know what some rag like the Red Star tells you when it rolls out its annual "Oh My God a glacier is melting. We're all gonna die" story.
The fact that millions of people in Canada depend on the meltwater from glaciers in the Rockies is why this is important. Even more depend on glacial meltwater in the US, Asia, Europe and any other continent where they still exist.
And the problem is exacerbated as populations grow - 100 years ago, there were probably only 1 million people on the Prairies, now it's somewhere around 8 million.
You better hope your children don't live downstream from any of these melting glaciers, because their lives may be considerably more difficult due to this.

And how is this my personal problem anyway? Stop calling me to these tired old idiot threads on worn out subjects. Call me when you've got something fresh and interesting (like that's possible).
It's everyone's problem actually, but if you don't want to be included, fair enough. Stop posting your right wing hate and we'll stop talking to you about this!
