Climate Change Linked to Deadly Nepal-Tibet Debris Flood, Study Finds

A new study has linked human-caused climate change to a catastrophic cascading disaster along the Nepal-Tibet border. Approximately 2 square kilometres of rock and glacial ice broke away from Langtang Lirung at an altitude of around 5,150 metres, plunging nearly 1,400 metres.
