No, this isn’t a story blaming China for global warming. Just a highly alarmed post about the Greenpeace report that just came out about their expedition to the Himalayan glaciers. As you can see from these now and then photos from the Rong Bu Glacier, the change from 1968 to 2007 is deeply disturbing the Greenpeace report (Reuters story here) has a bunch of mind-bending stats and facts (total area covered by glaciers “will likely shrink from the present 500,000 to 100,000 km2 by the year 2035,” “the Ganga, Indus, Brahmaputra and other rivers that criss-cross the northern Indian plain could likely become seasonal rivers in the near future”!!). But for me, this picture is worth many thousands of words and numbers. Anybody who hasn’t seen An Inconvenient Truth, go do so now!
