Glaciers are important indicators of climate change. A recent study
<https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adg7546> published in the
leading journal *Science* shows that glaciers in the tropical Andes have
now retreated further than at any other time in the entire Holocene – which
covers the whole history of human civilization since the invention of
agriculture. These findings are likely to resonate beyond the scientific
community, as they strongly support the lawsuit filed by a Peruvian farmer
against the energy company RWE, which has returned to court this week.
