Students cover Swiss Alps glacier with sheep wool
Original: geleira
Students in Switzerland covered part of an Alpine glacier with sheep wool blankets to slow its melting, and the experiment worked, reducing ice loss. The unusual preservation method is drawing attention as glaciers across the Alps retreat rapidly due to rising temperatures, prompting interest in low-cost ways to protect the ice.
Why now: Glacier melting is a growing climate concern, and the surprisingly simple wool-covering solution is a striking example of action being taken.
