Decades-old body discovered on rapidly melting Austrian glacier

TL;DR Summary
The body of a man believed to have died over 20 years ago was discovered on a glacier in Austria by a mountain guide. The man is thought to have had an accident on the glacier in 2001 and was found with ski touring equipment. As glaciers continue to melt due to climate change, previously hidden objects and bodies are being revealed. Glaciologists warn that if current emissions continue, the Alps region could become largely deglaciated, with significant impacts on freshwater supply and sea level rise.
