Glaciers are ice. Ice is cold water. When ice gets hot it turns back in to water. Sometimes that melting ice is on top of a mountain. When *that* ice turns into water it rolls down down down into the ocean with all the other water. It can eventually get back to the mountain top in the form of a snow flake to start building back that glacier. It takes a REALLY REALLY long time to build a glacier, and only a a short time to melt one. We need glaciers and we like the water exactly the way it is. So that’s why people talk about melting glaciers like it’s a little scary
