Climate change is
emerging as the biggest threat
to human and wildlife
communities. The temperature of
the earth is rising because of
the release of greenhouse
gasses, mainly by
developed countries. Although
Himalayan communities have
contributed very little to the
rise of the earth's temperature, we
will be the among the first to
suffer from the consequences. As the effects are at
a global scale we
must seek ways to mitigate
the threats and adapt our living
styles to minimize the threats to
human communities and natural
ecosystems. We are monitoring
changes in ecosystems via some
key indicator species and are
committed to find solutions that
could be applicable at the field
level.
Our
contribution
Himalayan Nature staff act responsibly on making their contribution to
reduce global warming.
