On average during the 2015 melting season, per square meter (to be clear, not in total ) these glacial rivers consumed twice as much CO2 as the Amazon rainforest. So ironically enough, glaciers melting under the weight of global warming can help sequester carbon, making such watersheds a previously unrecognized CO2 sink.

Greenhouse gas (GHG) levels in the atmosphere are at an all-time high due to human activity, especially that of industry. This leads to excess levels of greenhouse gases being trapped in the atmosphere thus warming the planet and starting to shift the global temperature into levels never before experienced in human society.
