Glaciers in southeastern Turkey are melting rapidly. This threatens water resources and local tourism.

The glaciers of Cilo Mountain are melting faster than expected due to climate change. Guide Kemal Özdemir states, "You can see many glacier pieces in the water right now."

Cilo Mountain in Hakkari forms Turkey's second-largest glacier area. However, due to human-induced climate change, glacier areas are shrinking rapidly.

Experts warn that the melting of glaciers will raise sea levels, potentially affecting millions of people.

88% of Turkey is at risk from climate change. A 30% decrease in precipitation and a 5-6 degree increase in temperatures are expected.
