How would glaciers be affected by changes in climate, such as global warning and global cooling? ULove&Rocketsu?
Global warming would cause a slow disappearance of glaciers, whereas global cooling would likely cause increases in glacier size and frequency. Thanks for asking ChaCha!

About Climate Change
Climate change is a change in the earth's climate over a period of time. Though climate change can be caused by changes in the earth's orbit and other global events, 97 out of 100 scientists believe that current changes in Earth's climate, specifically global warming trends, are caused by man-made activity, particularly the burning of fossil fuels. (Proceedings of the Nat'l Academy of Scientists, 2010)
About Global Warming
Global warming is the warming of the planet caused by human activity, including burning fossil fuels and cutting down forests. Carbon emissions are known to cause the planet to heat up, and the burning of fossil fuels creates carbon emissions as a byproduct.
