Glacier National Parks

The book highlights how glacial retreat disrupts water availability, increases wildfire risk, and endangers alpine environments, emphasizing the urgent need for environmental stewardship.

The book examines glacial formation, movement, and their historical significance, making complex concepts accessible with clear diagrams and photographs. It reveals alarming evidence of glacial decline through historical data, scientific studies, and photographic comparisons, demonstrating how global warming is specifically impacting various park regions. The study of these glaciers shows that they have been shaped over millennia.

Progressing from the introduction of glacial environments to the examination of retreat evidence and finally to mitigation strategies, the book presents potential policy recommendations and actions for protecting these landscapes.

By combining scientific rigor with accessible storytelling, Glacier National Parks inspires readers to understand and act on the climate challenges facing these irreplaceable natural treasures.
