The climate is changing, global temperatures are rising. The impact is already apparent, especially in the mountains - but also in the lowlands. The permafrost zone is movng higher, and the masses of snowmelt sweeping down from the glaciers are increasing year by year. Rivers roar into powerful floods and dwindle to a trickle within minutes. “Alpine Meltdown” takes us to a future world, incorporating the changes that have already occurred and pursuing the question: how will alpine landscapes look – and what animals will they still protect - at the end of the 21st Century?
