Swiss glacier collapse: ‘You cannot engineer your self out of one thing of this magnitude’ | EUROtoday
An enormous mass of rock and ice from a glacier thundered down a Swiss mountainside, sending plumes of mud skyward and burying almost all of Blatten, an Alpine village that authorities had evacuated earlier this month as a precaution. The devastating landslide is focusing renewed consideration on the function of world warming in glacier collapses around the globe.
