How to feed a starving glacier, with glaciologist M Jackson

Our glaciers are starving, but there’s a solution! Says glaciologist, National Geographic Explorer and TED Fellow Dr. M Jackson on the Climate Curious podcast. In conversation with Maryam Pasha, M breaks down why our glaciers are currently starving and how they have the remarkable ability to grow back, if we give them the right conditions! From the “isostatic rebound” of the springing Earth, to 40 generations of human breath captured in an ice core, we hear why glaciers will not be lost to history. Recorded live at TED 2026.
