💡To account for rising risk, we must proactively avoid creating new disaster risks, say @Sydney_Uni researchers in #DRRvoices.

How? Change how we frame, manage, assess risk,& apply new forms of intervention. ➡️ https://t.co/vuYAeRxh8K #PreventionWeb

“This is a wake-up call, not just for us in Khumbu, but for the entire Himalaya to rethink our ways, find alternatives to reduce the risks, and explore measures to protect ourselves,” Tenzing Chogyal Sherpa @ten10zing92, ICIMOD Cryosphere Analyst

“The Thame disaster serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need for global action as vulnerable communities continue to bear the brunt of climate extremes, writes @manjeetdhakal PhD, head of the LDC Support Team at Climate Analytics and Director of Climate Analytics South Asia.

As glaciers continue to melt at an alarming rate, Glacial lake outbursts and debris flows are going to be more destructive and frequent in Nepal in the coming years.

“There are 50,000 glaciers in the Himalaya. We haven’t even studied 1% of them.”  says Sherpa.

How much more do those in power need to see before they act? It's time they #ActForHumanity!

International humanitarian law is being violated, and civilians and aid workers are paying the price.

What are the mechanisms behind compound #tephra/#lava impacts? How efficient are #CleanUp operations to mitigate roof collapse during long-lasting eruptions? New insights from two recent papers on the 2021 #Tajogaite eruption: https://t.co/I6qlsTElmm https://t.co/74fxa5F1tm

An interferogram from Sept 16 and 28 Sentinel-1 images shows moraine instabilities (~2 cm) at South Lhonak Lake (breached Oct 4, 2023, and sent shockwaves across Sikkim). See map for key areas for field investigation @dbyeti @know_just_ice @irfansalroo @Rock_Avalanches

Incredible week in Yogyakarta, Indonesia connecting with academics (et al.) @AIWEST_DR and exploring parts of this beautiful city

Though nearly three million have received aid in Sudan since April, there are no safe humanitarian corridors to conflict-hit areas. https://t.co/9Sc9Gf3pxY

Attended a really insightful set of talks today at the @UCLIRDR humanitarian summit #UCLHS23 touching on important issues and debates surrounding humanitarian action and its attempts to address the growing impacts associated with disasters, conflict, and climate change.

There's a probability of high rainfall in July in #IndusBasin, while slightly above normal conditions are expected in Aug & Sept.

Coupled with increasing temp, this suggests need to be vigilant abt increased chances of further #glacial lake outburst #floods & associated hazards.

Missing @GeogDurham fieldtrips and really sad we didn’t get to the Isle of Skye this easter, but looking back on pictures from the Lakes to cheer myself up 🏔
