The melting glaciers are unveiling new topographical details, prompting Italy and Switzerland to revise their border which is primarily determined by these formations.
According to experts, this border adjustment reflects a broader trend of climate change impacting glaciers worldwide, altering not only landscapes but also political demarcations.
As glacial regions face ongoing degradation, more international borders may undergo changes, driven by shifting natural formations that define them.
Switzerland's glaciers alone have seen a 10 percent volume loss from 2022 to 2023, primarily due to low snowfall and warmer summers.
