Climate change in the Himalayas

I learned how we hurt the Himalayas mountains and how is its size is reducing, and I remember one of our

snowcapped mountains in the Peruvian Andes the Pastoruri , it was beautiful place and a tourist attraction for skiing, the only place here where you could ski, camping and much more, it was like the Himalayas but not as large, and then it came the increase of temperature by climate change, the snow covered part is reduced in 50%, there is no more ski and the authorities banned the visit of tourists as it can be now dangerous due to thaw, maybe in the next 20 years the Pastoruri will die. And I noticed that the Himalayas in 2035 so in 18 years it going to die if we don’t act. I also learned that we have the power for do a change, but our power is  less than the big industries that make the pollution. In the case of Himalayas mountains the blame weren’t from the people who live there, the blame was of the a lot of pollutant things that people in other parts of the world use.

And this is not all, throwing greenhouse gases, make a lot of danger for the environment and the people too, because they quickly reduce of ice and snow produces floods, and in the economy in these places will be smaller than 10 years ago.

The Himalayas and the Pastoruri are very beautiful and important, so we have to take care a lot with them.
