What happens when the planet's frozen frontiers melt? Mountain athlete and glaciologist Pascal Egli joins us to explore the shrinking cryosphere, from disappearing glaciers to collapsing permafrost. We talk climate feedback loops, methane threats, rising seas, and his work on the EU’s CryoSCOPE project using AI and satellite data to model what comes next. Whether you live in the Alps or on the Mediterranean coast, this frozen story affects us all.
