In a lot of places a lot of people depend on those glaciers as their sources of water. No glaciers, no water. No water, no habitability. No habitability, displacement. Displacement, forced migration and conflicts.

Based on eight different glacier models, nearly twice as much global glacial mass loss is projected to occur if climate warms by 2.7°C compared with 1.5°C above the preindustrial average.
