Himalayan Floods Triggered by Climate Cascade | Adelaide News
Description
A catastrophic Himalayan flood, triggered by a massive ice and rock avalanche, has obliterated villages, claimed hundreds of lives—including 34 Australians—and left rescue teams struggling against blocked roads and debris. Experts call it a “hazard cascade,” where melting glaciers, unstable slopes, and permafrost degradation create deadly domino effects. Survivors describe the flood as sudden and apocalyptic, with water surging nine meters high in minutes. Scientists warn climate change is accelerating these disasters, urging urgent investment in satellite, seismic, and river monitoring to build resilient communities before the next catastrophe strikes.
