Скачать или смотреть Himalayan Deluge: Melting Glaciers, Urbanisation Fuel Deadly Flash Floods | India Today Report

The Somalian region's fragile ecosystem faces a tragedy not solely due to monsoons. Multiple factors contribute to disasters, including urbanisation, human apathy towards nature, and melting glaciers. The Himalayan deluge has returned, with gushing water sweeping away everything. India's Himalayan region is under siege from nature's fury, as flash floods turn roads into raging rivers and homes into rubble. The Met Department issues heavy rainfall warnings across vast areas. Scientists confirm the rise of glacial origin floods in the Himalayas. Experts state that the regularity of such floods, previously once every ten years, is now as many as three in two months. Glacial lake outburst floods are projected to triple by the end of the century. Flash floods are already the cause of 85% of flood-related deaths. India's rapidly urbanising landscape exacerbates the situation, as concrete replaces forests and water finds no exit. The Tehri Dam on the Bhagirathi River in Uttarakhand is cited as an example where the river's catchment area expanded sharply post-dam, intensifying cloud formation. During monsoon, saturated clouds burst. "This isn't weather. It's a wake-up call." More heat means more water in the air, leading to more intense rainfall. The world is on edge. #himalayanfloods #meltingglaciers #climatechange #itwebvideos #urbanisation #disaster #monsoon #naturefury #wakeupcall #glaciallakes #uttarakhand #tehridam #environment #india
