16:19An Italy's Ventinia Glacier, one of the biggest in northern Lombardy region, has melted so much due to climate change that geologists can no longer measure the weight they have for the past 130 years
16:37After this year's summer, geologists discovered that the simple stakes they use as benchmarks to measure the glaciers' retraction each year are now buried under rock slides, snowmelt, and snowmelt, and snowmelt
16:48This had made the entire terrain too unsteady for future in-person monitoring visits
16:55Lombardy Glaciological Service will now use drone imagery and remote sensing to keep track of ongoing shrinkage
17:02The melting has accelerated in recent years, with the glaciers losing 431 meters in the last 10 years, with nearly half of that since 2021
17:12The Lombardy Glaciological Service has inherited the measurement of the Ventina Glacier in Valmalenko, the longest measurement of a glacier in Lombardy
17:27It is the longest in terms of years because it began in 1895 and continued uninterrupted for 130 years until last year
17:37This year, we were unable to find the measuring point installed in 2022-2023
17:44As the entire area in front of the glacier Tong has collapsed and is subject to landslides and instability of the glacier sides due to the rapid melting of the glacier

18:04At the end of the 19th century, this glacier came very close to the pro-glacial plain near the Poro and Ventina refuges, but now it has receded by more than 1.7 km
18:15The problem is the shrinkage that has occurred over the last 30 years and especially in the last 10 years
18:21When the glacier lost over 400 meters in linear terms, which is roughly equivalent to four football fields placed one behind the other
18:29This has led to a destabilization of the glacier's sides
18:32In the last three years alone, the glacier has lost 200 linear meters
