From #Himalaya to #Arctic - #GlaciersAtRisk: A Wake-Up Call on #WorldWaterDay
Story by Namrata Dadwal, March 21, 2025
"This year on World Water Day on March 22, the UN is highlighting '#GlacierPreservation'. Why? Because these frozen reservoirs that supply freshwater to nearly two billion people are disappearing at an alarming rate due to #ClimateChange.
"According to the #Copernicus Climate Change Service (#C3S), Earth's #glaciers have lost over 8,200 gigatonnes of ice since 1976, leading to #RisingSeaLevels and #WaterScarcity concerns. Nearly 6,000 gigatonnes were lost between 2000 and 2023, with the 2010s being the worst decade on record for glaciers almost the annual ice loss was more than double that of the 1980s, with an average of 370 gigatonnes of ice vanishing each year."

Sports d'hiver. « Une neige insuffisante » : sur l'Himalaya, les championnats d'Inde sont reportés
I'm in #Taiwan to significantly improve my Mandarin but I've both selected a basic introduction to #Taiwanese (indigenous language) class for the coming semester as well as fallen ever more into #Sanskrit grammar that I've never academically studied under a professional teacher this far but checking sources has so far been incredibly fun while deriving inspiration for my #worldbuilding for a later book in my series (the air themed book will take place in a #Himalaya inspired region)
Mountain climbers often succumb to altitude sickness — the body's reaction to a significant drop in atmospheric pressure, which means less oxygen is taken in with each breath. Yet, in high altitudes on the Tibetan Plateau, where oxygen levels in the air people breathe are notably lower than lower altitudes, human communities thrive. @ScienceAlert tells us how:
