Un glaciar revela algo preocupante en Chile I Fuerza Latina DW

The retreat of glaciers in southern Chile directly demonstrates the impact of climate change. Chilean ecophysiologist María Angélica Casanova analyzes firsthand how rising temperatures are transforming entire ecosystems. Fuerza Latina accompanies her to the Pichillancahue Glacier in Villarrica National Park. The changes are so rapid that she even finds it difficult to recognize the landscape. This process not only modifies the natural environment but also affects access to water for downstream communities. With more than three decades of experience and numerous expeditions to Antarctica, Casanova warns that these phenomena are not isolated. Ice—both in glaciers and in Antarctica—plays a fundamental role in regulating the global climate. However, there is also room for hope: in Antarctica, the international scientific community is working together, beyond borders or military interests, in an example of global collaboration aimed at protecting the planet. #fuerzalatinadw #chile
