[GreenYes] Retreat of the Glaciers from Global Climate Change

["Reindl, John" <Reindl@co.dane.wi.us>]

The German magazine Stern had an article recently that includes photographs
compiled by an ecology research institute in Munich from 8 areas in Europe
of the retreat of the glaciers from the early 1900's to the present,
dramatically showing the effect of global climate change. To see these
photos, go to the web page

http://www.stern.de/wissenschaft/wissen/journal/artikel/?id=263248, 

and click on the word "Fotostrecke" underneath the postcard of the two
ladies on a mountain path.

This will take you to a series of 16 pictures, one from the early 1900's,
the next of the situation in 2000 or 2001. Each picture is dated on the top,
so no knowledge of German is needed.
