Will hit the tourist industry hard. Glaciers rubbing against rock creates glacial flour that then get down to some lakes in the spring and summer. It gives the striking aqua pastel colour to some lakes. Then by fall the aqua colour is fading as the silt all goes to the bottom of the lake. So once the glaciers are gone so does premium Alberta tourism.
