Swiss village evacuated due to potential rockslide catastrophe.

Swiss authorities have ordered the evacuation of a small mountain village in the eastern canton of Graubunden due to the risk of a collapsing mountainside burying the village. The village of Brienz is at risk because 2 million cubic metres of rock could soon break off the mountain, damaging or outright crushing its quaint homes. Brienz's population of fewer than 100 people have been given until Friday evening to evacuate. Climate change is putting Switzerland at increased risk of natural hazards, including an increase in erosion due to higher temperatures.
