Will they reflect the light?

Or will they act like little lenses, magnifying the light and heat and melt the glaciers even faster.?

Could they be doing this to intentionally melt the glaciers, so they can say “See, We told you.”

I recommend that they be required to detail where when and how they polluted these glaciers, if not barred world-wide from doing it.

Lenses don't “magnify” ,(as in “increase”) light. A lens can concentrate light — but, these beads would sit on the glacier, and would not add to the light that the glacier absorbs— unless, they actually reduce reflectivity, rather than increase it. There are many reasons this is a bad idea — but, the magnifying-glass hypothesis isn't one of them.
