A walk in the Himalayas spotlights climate change impacts
A 2026 assessment by the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development #ICIMOD found that glaciers across the #HinduKush #Himalayas are losing ice at twice the rate recorded since 2000, with some glaciers having lost up to 27 metres of ice thickness since 1975.
For mountain communities, a warming #Himalaya does not simply mean warmer days. It also means unstable slopes, changing water availability, flash floods, landslides, glacial lake outburst floods, loss of lives and livelihoods, and damage to roads, bridges and homes.
The question now is not whether the Himalayas are vulnerable to #ClimateChange. The evidence is increasingly clear. The question is how quickly the countries that share these mountains can understand, prepare for and respond to what is already unfolding, and how can the world come together to save the Himalayas because what happens in the mountains does not remain here. Its impacts reach far beyond the Himalayas, moving downstream through rivers, economies, food systems, communities and generations.
