🏔️ Why Are Himalayan Glaciers Melting Faster?
The Himalayas are often called the Third Pole because they store enormous amounts of ice and freshwater. But rising temperatures, changing snowfall patterns, and pollution are causing glaciers to melt faster than ever before.
This is not just a mountain problem.
Glaciers feed rivers that provide water for farms, cities, ecosystems, and millions of people downstream. As glaciers shrink, the risks of floods, water shortages, and ecological disruption continue to grow.
❄️ The future of our rivers begins in the mountains.
🌍 Protecting the climate means protecting the Himalayas.
