Vi er en drøy måned inn i det internasjonale året for brebevaring. Men hvorfor har vi dette året og kan vi bevare breene? Se kronikk i forskersonen: www.forskersonen.no/isbre-klima-...
Breene i både Norge og resten av verden smelter i rekordfart
KRONIKK: I 2024 fikk vi den største smeltingen som er målt på breer i Nord-Norge. I 2025 markerer FN det internasjonale året for bevaring av isbreer. Men kan vi virkelig bevare breene?
