Himalayan slope collapse linked to global warming and Nepal flooding

A research report released Thursday suggests that human-induced global warming has contributed to the thinning of glaciers and the thawing of slope permafrost.

This environmental destabilization is believed to have likely caused the collapse of a Himalayan slope last week, which subsequently unleashed devastating flooding in Nepal.
