Alpine glaciers are shrinking rapidly, driven by escalating temperatures. The thawing of permafrost is leading to unstable cliffs, resulting in increased rockfalls. This year, the Mont Blanc massif has witnessed more frequent rock collapses. Regions previously blanketed in snow are now experiencing rainfall, which disrupts the stability of the terrain. Towns like Chamonix-Mont-Blanc face a looming threat of potential mountain collapses.
