4个月前，冰岛失去了奥克冰川。当地人聚集在一座碎石坡上，为它举办了“葬礼”。纪念碑上，刻着一封给未来的信：这是第一条痛失冰川地位的冰川。在接下来的200年里，我们所有的冰川都将遵循同样的灭亡路径……

Four months ago, Iceland lost the Oak Glacier. The locals gathered on a gravel slope and held a "funeral" for it. On the monument is a letter to the future: this is the first glacier to lose its status. For the next 200 years, all our glaciers will follow the same path of extinction ...

事实上，冰川葬礼离我们并不遥远。2016年，西藏阿里地区的阿汝冰川发生两次冰崩事件；2018年，藏东南地区雅鲁藏布江色东浦沟发生两次冰崩堵江事件。根据中国两次冰川编目统计，自1970年前后到2010年，全国冰川面积减少了12442.4平方公里，占冰川总面积的20.6%。

In fact, glacial funerals are not far away from us. In 2016, two ice avalanches occurred in the Aru Glacier in the Ali region of Tibet; in 2018, two ice avalanches occurred in the Sedongpu ditch of the Yarlung Zangbo River in southeast Tibet. According to China's two glacier catalog statistics, from around 1970 to 2010, the area of glaciers across the country decreased by 1,2442.4 square kilometers, accounting for 20.6% of the total area of glaciers.
