The Melting Giants: How Climate Chaos Is Rewriting the Himalayas

from Hidden Currents · host Pod Bay Media

Once the safest season for climbing, autumn in the Himalayas has turned perilous. A shock blizzard stranded hundreds of trekkers near Everest, signalling how warming air, extended monsoons, and westerly disturbances are colliding to transform the world’s highest peaks. In this episode, we explore the science behind the storms, the toll on local communities, and what a “wetting” Tibet means for the future of South Asia’s climate and water security.Hosted on Ausha.
