"As dawn broke over the Himalayas, we caught a yak’s gaze, halfway through a morning graze.

You probably know that Nepal is home to the world’s tallest peaks, including Mount Everest. Lesser known is the fact that the mountainous region that runs across the top of the country -- known as the Hindu Kush Himalaya region -- is known as ‘Asia’s water tower.’ It is the source of ten large Asian river systems and provides water to one-fourth of the world’s population. Chew on that for a second.

With tremendous ecological, cultural, and economic significance, the region has earned a fitting nickname: the pulse of the planet. Yet this pristine mountain ecosystem is also on the frontlines of climate change.

Even if the world's most ambitious #climate targets are met, one third of glaciers in the region will melt by 2100. Snowfall patterns are declining. The water towers of Asia are in a climate crisis." -- @climatediaspora
