The warming in the Himalayas poses significant risks to communities living in the region, including increased frequency and severity of landslides, floods, and glacial lake outburst floods. These events threaten lives, infrastructure, and livelihoods, particularly in remote areas with limited access to emergency services. Additionally, the accelerated glacial melt could disrupt water availability for millions of people who rely on Himalayan rivers for drinking water, agriculture, and hydropower.
