      Description

      Climate change is changing landscapes and creating impacts throughout the world. Glacier National Park is no exception. Around 1850, an estimated 80 glaciers existed within the present boundaries of the park. Based on aerial imagery from 2015 there are about 26 named glaciers remaining. This film explores current research on the park's melting glaciers and how the park's ecosystem is responding to climate change.
