A view of the arid floor of Reschensee Lake, which has been nearly completely drained during the construction of a new alpine road on May 23, 2024, near Resia, Italy. Reschensee Lake is a reservoir formed by a 1950s dam. The road that traces its edge has become precarious due to unstable mountain rock overhead. To counter the dangers of rockfalls, avalanches, and mudslides, the road and nearby cycle path at Lake Resia near Curon Venosta are being relocated 70 meters closer to the reservoir. Climate change is melting the permafrost that stabilizes these alpine rocks, endangering numerous mountain passes across the European Alps. After the new road is constructed, Reschensee will be refilled. This ambitious project, costing 20 million euros, is expected to wrap up by June.

Aerial view of people skiing near Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, on February 4, 2024. A mild winter across Europe has resulted in several ski slopes being left completely devoid of snow, with residents and businesses attributing the spring-like temperatures to climate change. In this context, data from the Italian environmental group Legambiente reveals that about 90% of Italy's ski slopes now depend on artificial snow. This compares to 70% in Austria, 50% in Switzerland, and 39% in France, highlighting the varying reliance on artificial snow across different European countries.
