Human being has experienced many natural disasters from the moment of first appearance. He/she has managed to survive from these disasters every time through intelligence, logic, and knowledge. It can be said that global warming is the major disaster encountered at present. The main difference of global warming from other natural disasters is that global warming is totally anthropogenic. The emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere due to human activities such as rapid population growth, industrialization, excessive consumption of fossil fuels gradually increases the effect of global warming. In addition, global warming triggers the occurrence of many disasters involving glacial melting, sea level rise, drought, desertification, flooding, landslide, erosion, and hurricane. The increasingly rapid melting of snow and glaciers on high mountains and poles is one of the disasters that will cause an incredible chaos on earth. Numerous studies performed on glaciers prove rapid glacial melting. The amount of ice melting with respect to global warming is calculated in different quantities considering various scenarios and so the degree of disasters as a result of glacial melting is revealed at different levels. According to the most optimistic predictions of scientists, sea water level will increase at least one meter at the end of 21st century. The consensus of all scientists on this matter is that even one meter sea level increment will lead to catastrophic events. If the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere that initiates global warming continues to grow and necessary measures are not taken urgently, differential sea level rise will occur due to the amount of glacial melting and the scale of disaster will accordingly amplify. The sea level increments indicate that major tragedies such as starvation, thirst, and epidemic diseases will be experienced on earth. The glaciers on poles and high mountains play an important role on the conservation and balancing of global climate system, sea level and temperature, ocean flows, fresh water sources, and all living spaces. The aim of this study is to prevention of global warming and consequently rapid glacial melting is actually one of the main problems of this century. We can state that discovering immediate solutions by all societies in common is the guarantee of our future
