"Glaciers across the planet are shrinking at an accelerating pace. In some
parts of the world, they are expected to disappear entirely. When scientists
focus on the number of individual glaciers that are vanishing, rather than
total ice volume, they find that the Alps could reach their highest rate of
glacier loss between 2033 and 2041. How severe this period becomes depends on
how much global temperatures rise. During this window, more glaciers could
disappear than at any other time on record. On a global scale, the peak in
glacier losses is expected roughly a decade later, with annual losses rising
from about 2,000 to as many as 4,000 glaciers."
