A 5,000-year-old arrow has been recovered from a Norwegian mountain ice patch as receding glaciers expose increasingly ancient artefacts. Archaeologists say melting ice driven by climate change is uncovering evidence of prehistoric hunting and travel in high mountain areas. The find is drawing wide attention, with observers linking the discovery both to its archaeological value and to what it shows about the pace of climate change in Scandinavia.
- 2Nepal floods raise fears of Himalayan glacier melt disaster●Nepal Floods Himalaya पर आने वाली आफत का एलान, Glacier पिघला तो कितनी तबाही होगी? | Sciencekaari
Flooding in Nepal has renewed warnings about the Himalayas, where melting glaciers could unleash far greater destruction. Discussion focuses on what a major glacier melt would mean for downstream communities, infrastructure and hydropower, with experts framing the floods as a signal of bigger climate-driven dangers building in the mountains.

Nepal's plans to expand hydropower, a cornerstone of its economy and energy exports, are being tested by climate change. Shifting rainfall patterns, glacier retreat and more erratic river flows threaten the reliability of projects the country depends on for electricity and revenue, raising questions about whether its hydropower ambitions can survive changing Himalayan conditions.
