All throughout history and even unto this very day, glaciers make people VERY cold!
Glaciers, when they are not melting due to global warming, hold a vast amount of water. Without glaciers, most, if not all, of our oceanside villages and cities would be submerged by many feet.
It has been argued that the presence of the glaciers at the poles tends to keep the globe from drifting off its axis. In other words, north remains north and south remains south, within a few degrees.
There are many other ways in which glaciers are either beneficial or problematic to human and other species on the planet. I encourage you to do some further research on your own.
Glaciers from long ago shaped the landscape of Scandinavia by carving out fjords, valleys, and lakes. Their movement also deposited sediments that enriched the soil for agriculture. Today, the melting of glaciers due to climate change is contributing to rising sea levels and impacting ecosystems in Scandinavia.
the soil became very wet and slushy when the glaciers melted
Glaciers affected the creation of Yosemite because they helped to carve out the valley. If they were to not have existed in the region, we may not have what we know as Yosemite Valley exist today.
Melting glaciers can be a danger to society. The melting of glaciers means that the sea level would rise. This could put some current sea-level cities underwater, causing damages and forcing people to find higher ground.
No, not all landmasses have large glaciers today. Glaciers require specific conditions such as cold temperatures, sufficient precipitation, and high elevations to form and persist. Therefore, you would expect to find large glaciers in regions that meet these criteria, such as polar regions and high mountain ranges.
Glaciers acted as barriers, limiting movement for both people and animals. Glaciers could block pathways, forcing individuals to find alternate routes to travel. As glaciers retreated, they opened up new areas for habitation and migration.

yes
glaciers pushed soil from New England to the middle colonies
the soil became very wet and slushy when the glaciers melted
The main changes in Mount Everest today is that the glaciers and snow is melting at a faster rate then people thought, also there are many more people on the mountain.

Australia has no glaciers currently, though it had some in past ages.

Glaciers shaped the interior plains by depositing thick layers of sediment that formed the flat landscape we see today. As glaciers advanced and retreated, they also carved out river valleys and lakes, leaving behind fertile soils that support agriculture in the region. Additionally, the meltwater from glaciers helped to create the extensive network of rivers and wetlands that define the interior plains.
It keeps our food good. How does it affect people....it keeps them from eating spoiled food
cuz yay
