GLACIERS RETREATING IN TIBET- CHINA



Numbers of glaciers in Tibetan Plateau, southwestern China are retreating with the warming of temperature. As per the new and comprehensive inventory by Cold and Arid Regions Environmental and Engineering Research Institute, the glaciers in the central upper reach of Brahmaputra River are shrinking at a fastest rate. Those glaciers are source of water to China as well as several parts of India.
