China Melting Glacier
In this photo taken May 2018, and released by Yulong Snow Mountain Glacier and Environmental Observation Research Station on Oct. 18, 2018, tourists gather on a platform above the Baishui Glacier No.1 on the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in the southern province of Yunnan in China. Scientists say the glacier is one of the fastest melting glaciers in the world due to climate change and its relative proximity to the Equator. It has lost 60 percent of its mass and shrunk 250 meters since 1982. (Yulong Snow Mountain Glacier and Environmental Observation Research Station via AP)
