Glacier National Park might soon need a new name.
The Montana park has 26 named glaciers today, down from 150 in 1850. Those that remain are typically mere remnants of their former frozen selves, a new gallery of before and after images reveals.
All arguments about global warming aside, now is a time of clear retreat by age-old ice packs in many locations around the world. Some retreat just a few inches or feet per year, but others are melting faster than a snow cone in Texas.

Glacier Facts
About 10 percent of Earth's land is covered with glaciers.
During the last Ice Age, glaciers covered 32 percent of land.
Glaciers store about 75 percent of the world's fresh water.
Antarctic ice is more than 2.6 miles (4,200 meters) thick in some areas.
If all land ice melted, sea level would rise approximately 230 feet (70 meters) worldwide.
SOURCE: NOAA
80 feet per day
Montana might not be the first place that comes to mind when you think of glaciers. Elsewhere, however, the situation is similar.
Yadda yadda yadda ... What purpose does the ice in glaciers serve to nature?

Until you answer the question you prove you are a hypocritical moron, answer it or admit you have no clue as to what you are parroting.

Glacial ice forms from snowfall.
It's purpose in nature is to get rid of that snow.
