Cactus Is Replacing Snow In Switzerland Mountains, Sparking Global Warming Concern

Mountains in Switzerland are synonymous with snow. However, people are noticing increasing growth of cactus covering the slopes as global warming worsens. Authorities claim that prickly pears, or species of the cactus genus Opuntia, are proliferating in some areas of Valais, encroaching on natural reserves, and posing a threat to biodiversity, as per a report in The Guardian. In some of the hills surrounding Sion, the capital of Valais, opuntia species and related cacti have also become common. According to estimates, opuntia plants currently account for 23-30 per cent of the low vegetation cover in these slopes. Additionally, reports of their appearance have come from nearby Alpine areas including Ticino and Grisons in Switzerland, as well as the Aosta Valley and Valtellina in Italy.
