Nepal’s devastating Himalayan floods have exposed the human and economic cost of a warming region, reviving demand for climate justice.
The devastating floods in Nepal demonstrate what happens when reckless development puts climate-vulnerable communities in harm’s way. They also highlight a climate-finance system that is unable to provide the funds countries need in the immediate aftermath of such disasters.
Devastating flash floods in Nepal highlight the growing risks from melting glaciers and climate change, underscoring the urgent need to strengthen early-warning systems and greater accountability for climate-related disasters.
The latest evidence suggests that the Chinese scientific establishment understands the dangers of a planned Himalayan dam – the world's largest – more clearly than its political leadership is willing to acknowledge. With the livelihoods of two billion people at stake, the international community needs to weigh in.
