    Even on warm summer days, a cold wind whistles down from the glacier ice of the Pasterze. At the edge of the glacier, a sign marks the ice cream stall of 2010. Meanwhile, the signboard stands quite lonely in the rocky mountain landscape, while the glacier has already retreated significantly - a clear memorial to climate change.
