In a recent episode of Tech Tuesday on WOSU, All Sides' Amy Juravich engaged in a compelling discussion with two of The Ohio State University's Byrd Center researchers, focusing on the urgent need to preserve the world's glaciers. At the 18-minute mark of the broadcast, Distinguished University Professors Lonnie Thompson from the School of Earth Science and principal investigator of the Ice Core Paleoclimatology Research Group and Bryan Mark from the Department of Geography and principal investigator of the Glacier Environmental Change Research Group detail decades of pioneering research and conservation efforts.

This dialogue unfolded against the backdrop of a global initiative, as the United Nations General Assembly declared 2025 the Year of the Glacier. This designation serves as a call to action to raise awareness about glaciers, snow, and ice's vital role in the climate system.

Other guests in this episode included Miami University’s Associate Professor Arthur Carvalho and CNET’s Managing Editor for Commerce Russell Holly.
