A catastrophic collapse of a chunk of the Birch glacier in Switzerland’s Blatten village has left over 300 residents evacuated and their homes severely damaged. The incident is linked to global warming, which is causing glaciers to melt at an accelerated rate. Thousands of tonnes of mud and ice overwhelmed the village on Wednesday, resulting in one reported missing person.
