The Himalayan peaks provide nearly a full continent of drinking water and with less snow this is in peril.
It's a phenomenon called #ElevationDependentWarming as you go higher in altitude the rate of warming actually increases and this is all aggravated by #ClimateChange, causing floods AND droughts.

These mountains are deadly mainly to the Sherpa's safe guarding the scientists and tourists that climb the mountains.

"19 jul 2023 MOUNT EVEREST
To understand how the acceleration of climate change is unfolding around the globe, scientists are looking at Mount Everest. As temperatures on the Himalayan peaks rise faster than in other parts of the world - due to a phenomenon called elevation-dependent warming - the icemelt on the planet’s highest glaciers is upending many aspects of life in the region.
For climbers and tourists, the risks posed by avalanches and other climate-related accidents keep growing: 2023 has already been one of the deadliest years on record on Everest. For local Sherpa communities, warming impacts are bringing personal danger and economic harm, including a lack of water for agriculture and a bigger threat of large-scale flooding and glacial lake outbursts.
We traveled to the iconic mountain range to see how the climate crisis is unfolding, and what lessons we can learn from the top of the world."
