Scientists Do an Experiment to save a Glacier科学家做实验拯救冰川

高齐云

Swedish scientists do an experiment. They put a cloth on a glacier. Theglacier is the Helags Glacier in the north of Sweden.

All glaciers in the world are melting3. This happens because the planet isgetting warmer. Scientists are thinking of ways on how to stop it. They put a clothon the top of the Helags Glacier in summer. The cloth stops the sun. It keeps theglacier cold. Scientists save at least 3.5 meters of ice. The ice does not melt.

The melting of glaciers is a serious problem. Scientists believe that morepeople know about the problem now.

瑞典科學家做了一个实验。他们在冰川上铺了一块布。该冰川是瑞典北部的海拉格斯冰川。

世界上所有的冰川都在融化。这是因为地球正在变暖。科学家们正在思考该如何阻止它。夏天，他们在海拉格斯冰川的顶部铺上了一块布。这块布可以阻挡阳光，使冰川保持寒冷。科学家们至少挽救了3.5 米高的冰，那些冰没有融化。

冰川消融是一个严重的问题。科学家们相信现在有更多的人了解了这个问题。
