In this article, Dr Rina Mukherji discusses the critical issue of glacial retreat and glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) exacerbated by climate change. Although glaciers are vital freshwater sources, their rapid retreat threatens ecosystems and human settlements, particularly in mountain regions. The article highlights the rising risks of GLOFs, as evidenced by disasters in the Himalayas and other areas. It emphasizes the need for global adaptation and mitigation strategies, focusing on decarbonization, improved early warning systems, and investments in nature-based solutions to reduce the human toll of climate change.
