A recent survey taken by the Internationbal center for integrated mountains development suggest that approximately 56000 glaciers of the Himalaya, hindu Kush, Karakorm and Pamir mountains, which together form an arc across Afghanistan, Pakistan, China, India, Nepal, Bhutan, and Myanmar will disappear. What is to blame? The answer is global warming. Experts say that depending on the rate of global warming, these glaciers will disappear by 2100. That’s almost 80 years from now. Some of us won’t be alive till then, but those who do will have to face this terrible crisis.
