As the glaciers melt, additional water is added to the oceans. This new addition can alter the tempture and the currents of the oceans. At the same time, this additional water causes the global water levels to rise. The rising water is a threat to all coastal cities and threatens to change the shape of the current global landmass. It can also effect the life of many animals by adding fresh water to salt water and changing the concentrations so it is no longer life sustaining for its current occupants.

mountain glaciers
Yes, Mount Kilimanjaro does have snow and ice on its summit despite being close to the equator. However, the glaciers on the mountain have been shrinking in recent years due to climate change.
Advancing glaciers are glaciers that are moving forward and expanding, while retreating glaciers are glaciers that are melting and shrinking. Stationary glaciers are glaciers that are not currently advancing or retreating, maintaining a relatively stable position.
If mountain glaciers disappear there will be no source for many mountain streams, which will then dry up. Many rivers will be reduced in size as a result.
No iinfact there shrinking from global warming
The small glaciers that exist in high mountainous areas were called mountain glaciers or cirque glaciers.

the moutains glaciers are melting.
The ice sheets on Antarctica and Greenland are the largest in the world. They are shrinking.

Mount Rainier has three glaciers.

It is valley and continental glaciers they are different because continental glaciers are the largest, and valley glaciers are on the top of mountain peaks.
