Climate change may have contributed to a devastating glacier and rock-wall collapse in the Himalayas, raising concerns about the growing risks of floods and other climate-related hazards.

This DD India report looks at scientists’ findings on rising temperatures, glacier thinning and melting permafrost in the Himalayan region. It also examines the World Meteorological Organization’s findings on global glacier ice loss and declining river flows.

According to the reports cited in the transcript, glaciers lost nearly 408 gigatons of ice in the 2025 hydrological year, while below-normal river flows affected 36% of the world’s river basin areas. Scientists warn that changing water cycles, droughts and floods are placing communities and ecosystems at risk.

Watch the full report for the latest findings on climate change, glaciers and global water resources.
