Do you know this about the Tibetan Plateau? Often referred to as Earth's 'third pole'. the Tibetan Plateau is a reservoir of freshwater, boasting over 46,000 glaciers. The largest outside the North and South Poles. These glaciers feed major rivers like the Mekong, Yangtze, and Yellow River, providing a lifeline for millions in China and Southeast Asia. But there's a looming threat—climate change is causing these glaciers to melt rapidly, putting ecosystems and communities at risk. Recent findings reveal that the ice loss from Himalayan glaciers was underestimated by 6.5% from 2000 to 2020, raising urgent concerns about the future of this critical water source. 🏞️❄️ #TibetanPlateau #climatechange #GlacialMelt #waterresources #shorts
