Swiss hold high-altitude wake for lost glacier

Description

Dozens of people undertake a "funeral march" up a steep Swiss mountainside to mark the disappearance of an Alpine glacier amid growing global alarm over climate change. The move comes after Iceland made global headlines last month with a large ceremony and the laying of a bronze plaque to commemorate Okjokull, the island's first glacier lost to climate change.
