The UN General Assembly has declared 2025 the International Year of Glaciers’ Preservation. The first World Glacier Day will be celebrated on 21 March 2025, with World Water Day, coming a day later.
Glaciers and ice sheets hold around 70 per cent of the world's freshwater, but they are disappearing at an alarming rate due to climate change.
