CLEAN : Swiss hold wake for Pizol glacier to highlight climate change

The video tutorial discusses the lecturer's observations and experiences with a glacier over 14 years. Initially small but intact, the glacier has significantly melted, splitting into two due to strong summer heat waves in 2018. The lecturer shares personal sadness over the glacier's changes while maintaining scientific interest in monitoring its extinction. The transcript also includes unrelated segments that are not clearly connected to the main topic.
