How Venezuela Lost Its Last Glacier | UPSC | Indepth | Drishti IAS

Venezuela has likely become the first country - it certainly won’t be the last - in modern history to lose all its glaciers. Scientists expected the Humboldt glacier to last another decade. However, it melted at a faster rate than expected. If you think that climate change is a problem of the future, think again. Venezuela, for instance, has likely become the first country - it certainly won’t be the last - in modern history to lose all its glaciers. This comes after scientists reclassified the Humboldt glacier, Venezuela’s last remaining glacier, as an ice field earlier this month.
Venezuela used to be home to six glaciers, located at about 5,000 meters above sea level in the Andes mountains. By 2011, five of them had vanished. Scientists expected the Humboldt glacier to last another decade. But it melted at a faster rate than expected and has shrunk to an area of less than 2 hectares, leading to its downgrade from a glacier to an ice field.
Much like the Humboldt glacier, other glaciers across the world are shrinking and disappearing faster than researchers thought, with two-thirds of them projected to melt out of existence by 2100 at current climate change trends, according to a 2023 study.
