The Shrinking Aletsch and the Battle for Alpine Wildlife | Full Documentary

A comprehensive documentary exploring the dramatic retreat of Switzerland's iconic Aletsch Glacier, the largest glacier in the Alps, which is shrinking by 50 meters in length each year. The film highlights how climate change is threatening this grand landscape—once an inspiration for J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth—and details the vital work of rangers, biologists, and forest wardens fighting to protect unique alpine biodiversity, from rare mountain orchids and wild bees to endangered stag beetles and marmots struggling to adapt to rising temperatures.
