(6 Aug 2023) A record number of cruise passengers are expected this year in Alaska's capital, drawn by the Mendenhall Glacier. But Juneau's main attraction is rapidly retreating because of climate change, prompting the question what will happen next? (August 6) (AP Video by Becky Bohrer, Manuel Valdes)

When Capt. George Vancouver "discovered" the area now called Juneau, AK in 1794 the Mendenhall Glacier overlaid what is now our Juneau airport and pressed up against what is now called Douglas Island (Gastineau Channel was a dead end inlet). During this same voyage of discovery, he sailed past what is now the entrance to Glacier Bay, but he did not "discover" Glacier Bay or see it because it was filled with an ice field. These Alaskan glaciers and ice fields were retreating then and continue to do so to this day and have probably been doing so since the end of the last little ice age.

But we help them recede. Climate change accelerated warming the Artic decades ago. The Arctic is the canary in the coal mine.

Yes, has absolutely NOTHING to do with humans. Despite what the propagandists will tell you in efforts to further enrich themselves. 😂

Retreating slowly 250 years ago. Retreating very fast now.

Quite possibly, but who was measuring it 250 years ago? I wonder too how fast the retreat will be when it reaches the colder higher elevations. @@billkallas1762

Everywhere those ships show up, get ruined. We banned the biggest ones, and limited the amount of people here in Maine. Business owners, too bad, find something else to do.

The tour boats and ferries will still stop in Juneau . People on the inside passage will still see glaciers. Maybe they won't bother to ride out to the mendenhall but the shops downtown will continue to be profitable.

Yep, something that big takes a LONG time to melt. Nothing to do with cLiMaTe ChAnGe (which doesn’t exist, not in a man made form).

@@lastmanwalking2793 typical response from a fully programmed zombie though. Can’t make it up. You and I both know it doesn’t matter how much you’re exposed to reality. You’re too far gone. This started with you from a young age. Indoctrination is a scary thing; weak minds are easily controlled.
