ArabiaWeather.com - Muhammad Salameh - Scientists are still working hard to stop the continuous climate change that has been going on for years, not to see the melting of glaciers, which will affect the future stock of clean water high in the mountains. It may raise the level of estuaries as a result of the transformation of melted ice into flowing water, causing floods.
