Hundreds mourn 'dead' glacier at funeral in Switzerland

Hundreds of people held a funeral and paid respects to a Swiss glacier that is disappearing as temperatures climb.

Pizol glacier in the Glarus Alps, eastern Switzerland, stands at an altitude of about 2,700 meters, and has lost 80-90% of its volume since 2006, leaving behind 26,000 square meters of ice -- less than four football fields -- said Matthias Huss, a glacier specialist at ETH Zurich university. The glacier, which has been monitored since 1893, will be the first to be taken off the Swiss glacier surveillance network, according to Huss.

I grew up hiking to see that glacier on various school trips so sad

Whoa are they still mourning the ice age. Where did that go!

It’s a shame the glacier has been lost but a funeral? People are strange.

Like, a month ago!

Delusional people don’t mean anything...

Eternal glaciers do not exist. Cry babies.

Did they hold a funeral for the dinosaurs, too?

Really sad. 😭😭😭😭

Tentoads4truth :(

🤣

Religion is now twisted bowing to the sun gods, the rain gods and despise the evil western civilization which has afforded man with the luxuries of survival past 90 years

Meanwhile, realDonaldTrump is scheduled to hold a rally in Minnesota. Will IlhanMN be attending?

Hundreds had the same type of funeral for California and Hawaii then they found out the scientists lied

OMG! How sick! With all that's needed around the world, and these idiots are mourning a glacier melting. These people need help. Now, it's not global warming or cooling. It's 'CLIMATE CHANGE'. That way, they're right no matter what happens..earth grows colder, or warmer. A JOKE!

They need a job ASAP!

These glaciers have been receding since the late 1700s...

BREAKING NEWS: Swiss glacier reappears in Antarctica because earth goes through temperature fluctuations based on solar cycles... But don’t let science get in the way of your climate cult.

Dangerous to our earth

Here is the REAL beneficiary of 'climate change' hoax, and its not for humanity:

Isn’t the Icelandic glacier positioned atop a volcano that is part of and fueled by one of the most volcanically active faults on our planet. Volcanoes. Hot... very hot

There's a lot of melting cubes in my ice bucket that need this energy

So spontaneous that shot. Nothing contrived at all

Weird.

how do they explain swiss miss? shit is warm as fuck

These people need a hobby.

But not a religion.

The sky is falling, the sky is falling! ChickenLittle

We'll be holding a birthday party for the new glaciers currently forming in Antarctica.

💵💵💵💵💵💵😘

Murdering babies but mourning glaciers. Wow

lie

I wonder if they did that after the ice age when the ice receded

see and Read r

So sad, though I thought the lady in the pic is a beekeeper.

Maybe too late for save😪

😢😢😭

Gosh, we can’t even agree that our home is burning to the ground! What a species we are! We’ll be forced to realize at some point but that’s when it’s too late to do anything about it, more like Stage 4 metastatic cancer

The sign of things to come. Concerned citizen of 🌎

It's not a cult. It's not a cult. It's not a cult.

Nut jobs

Pig hundreds of people showed up, how come we see only one woman mourning

😪😔

Don’t worry, it’ll be back in a million years or so

they can have a birthing party when it comes back in winter .

We humans are really something....we can kill the BEAUTY of the Earth🌍without even trying. How many other life form can boast of that? Our existence is suppose to be an additional Beauty to the Earth surface but I wonder if it's the other way round😭😩⁉️

Anything to get attention to this huge problem is GREAT.

😂😂😂Did they cremate it? Bunch of fools.

The earth changes .. nothing we do causes it or changes it.

By linking the Science of Climate change with fringe groups (several HUNDRED people) and anthropomorphism you do the world a disservice and shift the focus away from an important topic.

After modi sold Kashmiri land next rum world wl have have funeral for Himalayan glaciers disappearance

Station house pump ocean water on ice

M it’s wasn’t hundreds more like 90 people why can’t u get your fact straight this is a sad affair losing this glacier and u have to lie about how many where there

Aren’t they idiots. It will return

RayPride 😢😱

So, now cnn has a parody account? 🙄

This global warming garbage has become a religion for the clowns ...

You mean like the one in Colorado that existed when I was a kid?

That’s nice... how about celebrating the rising of the sun, the seasons, morning the leaves falling, and all other natural events. BECAUSE.. that’s what this is, a natural event... happens every 10000 years or so... AND MAN CAN’T CHANGE THAT NOR CAN HE INFLUENCE IT!!!

Thinking about having a memorial for the glacier that used to cover the beach I was at today and the fields that my food is grown on.

For two million years, North America, Europe, and Asia were covered in ice sheets. Glaciers were everywhere. As the temperatures got slightly warmer, these glaciers began to melt. Worked in our favor, don’t you think?

😂😂😂

I'm usually pro life until I see idiots like this in our world.

Delusional and sick people.

It will be back during the winter. Happens every single year.

Some really strange people in this world..

So hundreds of idiots,got it

This planet will shake ourselves OUT; for our backwards transgressions.

OH MY GAH‼️‼️‼️‼️ Bringing out all the weirdos🤦‍♀️

Glaciers have been melting off and on for millions of years. insane Stupidity

The church of man-made up global warming.

😂😂😂 LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder

This suppose to happen in climatic changes,once again :Ice-capped regions bec tropics,cold regions tropical. N/ Pole was once S/pole why ?

lunatics

Mental illness

Ha, ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That 'THING' is Finally Gone and now we get to see the Beautiful Rock and Landscape that Dang Glacier was Smothering.

Can they come and do one for the continental ice sheet that covered 60% of North American but melted 12,000 years ago?

And don’t forget to report on the climate researchers that recently went to Antarctica to do a documentary on the disappearing ice and then had to be rescued because their ship got stuck in ice that they said wasn’t there anymore

😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢🥵🥵🥵🥵

I wonder if I should have one for the snowman my kids build in the winter

Give me a break

Obama’s spending of trillions of tax payers dollars during his 8 years of splurge, didn’t change the climate at all. Another Obama Failure.

These people are nuts, there have been millions of glaciers disappear over the history of the earth.

You didn't mourn when people died

This sort of hysterical dramatics isn’t helping environmentalist’s cause.

Who is making the most money from climate change

This is a joke, right 😂🤣☠️
