Himalayas glacier melts every year due to change of climate and global warming. Due to an increase in average temperature of the earth, the glaciers and the snow are melting.


This is because of the unhealthy warming of temperature, the snow is melting and it is affected the people in the form of floods. Initially, there may be water availability but in a few years, the ocean sea level is rising and we may face an acute shortage of water.

◇A typical statement that I’ve seen used in the media is that the Himalayan glaciers will vanish by 2035, and that about 1.5 billion people will be affected by lack of water as a result.  It is true that if the Himalayan glaciers melt, people will be affected, but not necessarily the ones being referred to, nor in the way they’re currently saying.

In reality, the percentage of the water contributed by glacier melt to these societies is small.  What people mix up is that there is an annual snowfall which melts and is then available to use.  Most of the water doesn’t come from melting glaciers at all.  However, lately many glaciers are melting faster than they had before, and so more water is temporarily available.  Once the glaciers melt substantially, this increment will vanish.

hope it helps u dear
