A program aimed at identifying and monitoring areas with high risk of landslides in Nepal had its funding suspended by the Trump administration in January 2025. More than a year later, a disaster occurred involving a massive glacier and rock slide that triggered rapid-moving water flows. This event resulted in the deaths of over 1,100 people and affected Nepal and China.
The disaster highlights the growing danger of living in mountainous regions as the planet continues to warm due to human activities. Rising temperatures are destabilizing glaciers and increasing the risk of landslides and sudden floods.
Further details about the program and the disaster are available from the source, including the impact of climate change on the region.
