Climate Change

The devastating floods in Nepal underscore the increasing frequency and intensity of climate-related disasters, driven by global warming and the melting of Himalayan glaciers. These events are compounded by the intensification of El Niño, which is linked to climate change, leading to more extreme weather patterns globally. The situation in Nepal serves as a stark reminder of the cascading effects of climate change, including potential ecosystem collapse and increased human vulnerability in high-risk areas. Furthermore, the lack of effective global policy responses and the ongoing censorship and misinformation around climate science impede necessary action, heightening long-term planetary risks.
