This assessment report on the state of water, ice, society and ecosystems in the #HindukushHimalaya is finally out today. It’s a privilege to be part of the Ch. 5 (the Cryosphere & Society) in which we make a strong case for integrating socio-economic and cultural perspectives.

[ICIMOD @icimod]

ICIMOD’s latest report, Water, Ice, Society, and Ecosystems in the #HinduKushHimalaya, is published today.

Building on the 2019 Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) assessment report, this major new study provides the most accurate assessment of #snow, ice, and #permafrost to date.

The peer-reviewed study warns of grave consequences to the region, which provides #freshwater services to a quarter of the world's population and is home to four global #biodiversity hotspots.

Key findings:
🔹Himalayan #glaciers disappeared 65% faster in the 2010s than in previous decade
🔹The glaciers could lose up to 80% of their current volume by end of this century
🔹Availability of #water in the Hindu Kush Himalaya is expected to peak in mid-century then decline
🔹#Floods and #landslides are projected to increase over the coming decades
🔹Effects of the changing #cryosphere on fragile #mountain habitats are particularly acute
