Climate Change and the Fate of Mountain Communities

An urgent call at the National Climate Conference for policies that protect Nepal's mountain communities on the front lines of the climate crisis.

Nepal stands at a unique and painful intersection: we are among the countries least responsible for greenhouse gas emissions, yet we are among those most severely impacted by climate change.

Walk through the high villages of Humla or Dolpa. Speak to the farmers who have watched their seasonal patterns collapse. This is not merely an environmental issue. It is a justice issue.
