WESTERN HIMALAYA AT POINT OF NO RETURN?
This monsoon season has been unusually severe for the Western Himalayan region, which has witnessed extreme weather events almost daily. Relentless, intense rainfall and repeated cloudbursts have triggered flash floods, landslides and mudflows, wiping out villages, claiming hundreds of lives, cutting off highways and bringing life to a standstill. DOWN TO EARTH speaks with a climate scientist, geologist, geomorphologist and glaciologist to understand whether the Himalayas have reached a point from which it may be extremely difficult to recover.
