If action is not taken soon on climate change, all of Glacier National Park’s glaciers may be gone by 2020, and 50 years from now, there may not be a snowflake hitting the ground in Missoula, warned University of Montana forestry professor Steve Running at a packed event in the UC Ballroom Monday.
“Missoula snowfall is down 22.7 inches from what it was 50 years ago,” Running said. “It implies that in 50 years, we won’t get any snowfall in Missoula at all.”
