EARTH NEPAL / TIBET -- 06 Jan 2011 -- This image taken from the International Space Station shows the glaciers around the north western side of Mount Everest - which straddles the border between Chinese-controlled Tibet and Nepal. The top of the image is north and shows the two Tibetan galciers of Rongbuk West and Rongbuk East. The Everest Ice Fall and the Khumbu Glacier are visible along with the West Shoulder of Mount Everest on the left of the image. Rising temperatures as a result of global warming are rapidly melting these glaciers - which could have a devastating impace on South Asian nations like India and Nepal in the coming decades -- Picture by Lightroom Photos | NASA

NEPAL Everest Base Camp -- 16 Apr 2005 -- A view looking south of the massive Khumbu Glacier, just south of Everest Base Camp. Like on many of the world's glaciers, here on the main Khumbu Glacier, extensive melting is evident. Scientists have warned that rising temperatures from global warming may cause the demise of these Himalayan ice falls and glaciers - some already melting fast. The effects of this are likely to affect many Asian nations, as these glaciers - and those in neighbouring Tibet - feed most of the large river systems from Pakistan to China. Widespread flooding has began and is expected to continue. In the 2004 Monsoon, some 30 million people in Nepal, India and Bangladesh were affected by serious flooding. Scientists add that after the glaciers have melted, their departure will lead to widespread drought across many areas of Asia. Glaciers are melting all over the world, here in the high Himalaya, on average, glaciers are receeding by around 15m + per year, a statistic which increases as the temperature rises -- Picture

NEPAL Dig Tsho -- Dec 2005 -- Herdsman Angphoura Sherpa of Thame with one of his herd of 28 Yaks prepares to leave his mountain pastures for the winter. Angphoura lives in some fear of a glacial overburst spill from Dig Tsho lake (visible behind the Yak) at the top of the Langmoche Valley. This lake burst in 1985 washing away several houses and many hectares of pasture land (including some his own). In total, damage was estimated at US$5m. Scientists have proved these huge Himalayan glaciers are melting fast which could threaten Asia's water supply in the future having a devastating impact on the region's agriculture -- Picture
