Glaciers act as a natural archive, freezing remnants of the past in icy storage. As they melt, they reveal these artifacts, providing a look at what the world once was. Unfortunately these glaciers are melting very quickly, forcing many researches to act very quickly as the artifacts are exposed to the environment.
YouTuber Aidin Robbins took a look at the melting glaciers around the world, the professions they create, and how the changes are impacting the world. The near 30 minute video, shot by Eric Matt, is full of stunning images and clips of life within glaciers.
