The Horrific dam burst was not caused by climate change. In fact, temperatures have been running below normal in Tibet and near normal in Nepal. The source is geological, not meteorological
Landsat 9 captured very clear images of the Himalayan glacier that collapsed, triggering the catastrophic flash floods in Nepal.
Estimating very roughly from these images, it appears that the area that failed may have spanned ~1 km² of ice and rock.

The mountain gave way because a hanging glacier tongue sheared off and dropped about 4,000 feet into the valley. That ice was already flowing over a cliff. A warm spell the day before likely sent meltwater down to the bed — water lube that cut friction so the hanging block lost its grip. The falling ice and rock hit the river, briefly dammed it, then released a surge of water, mud, and boulders down the Bhote Koshi–Trishuli system
Anyone hanging arround with muderers and people who are stealing future from poor kenyans is atraitor these are the people you entrust your kids with.what a shame!
@yoginisd For trade. Only few passes between Himalayas are viable for trade. That was the main artery connecting Tibet with Nepal. Glacier outburst risks were recognized but neccesity of trade outweighted the risk.
Naïve Kenyans are saying that the government of Kenya advancing the globalists agenda is conspiracy theory. Just read those nefarious bills that keep popping from our parliament. Foreign billionaires come to state house to take selfies?
