Switzerland and Italy adjust border as glaciers melt near Zermatt

Switzerland and Italy have adjusted their border due to melting glaciers, which have changed the landscape. The Theodul Glacier, near Zermatt, has lost significant mass, prompting a roughly 100-meter border realignment. Switzerland approved the change last week, while Italy's approval is pending. The adjustment affects popular ski areas, allowing for easier crossing between the two countries. The shift reflects broader climate impacts, as European glaciers are melting rapidly. Recent reports indicate that Swiss glaciers are losing ice at an unprecedented rate.
