A tourist visits the Mer de Glace Ice Cave in the "Mer de Glace" glacier in the Mont Blanc Massif, French Alps, central-eastern France, on Sept. 23, 2026. The ice cave located under the Mer de Glace is covered with geotextile tarps to slow down the melting of the glacier caused by particularly high temperatures due to successive heat waves in the summer. The Mer de Glace glacier is undergoing an accelerated melting down due to climate change.
