Climate change is transforming the Himalayan landscape, as the rising number and size of snow water lakes reveal alarming trends. Recent analysis shows a 10.81% increase in lake areas since 2011, with a staggering 33.7% growth in surface area. This expansion heightens the risk of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs), posing threats to nearby communities and ecosystems. Experts urge immediate disaster management efforts to mitigate potential flooding impacts. In this video, we explore the data, implications, and need for proactive measures to protect lives and the environment in the Himalayan region.
