Why It Matters

尼泊爾是一個擁有3000萬人口、經濟貧困的喜馬拉雅山國家,近期與中國西藏邊界發生致命洪災,造成682人喪生、近3000人失蹤。該地區易受氣候變遷影響,冰川融化增加災害風險。

尼泊爾與中國西藏邊界26日發生致命洪災,造成682人喪生、近3000人失蹤之際,尼泊爾外交部長今天警告,氣候變遷對喜馬拉雅山區的威脅日益加劇。

這個擁有3000萬人口、經濟貧困的喜馬拉雅山國家已呼籲外國專業支援。尼泊爾財政部長魏格(Swarnim Wagle)向路透社表示,災後重建約需40億至50億美元(約新台幣1275億至1590億元)。

請繼續往下閱讀...

法新社報導,美國地質調查所(US Geological Survey)指出,這起災難是因冰川崩塌導致大量泥石流衝下山谷所致。

儘管崩塌的確切原因尚不明朗,但氣候變遷正導致全球冰川加速融化,增加這類災難的風險。

外交部長坎乃爾(Shisir Khanal)表示,他已與中國外交部長王毅通話,雙方同意加強「即時水文資料」的共享。

根據中國外交部聲明,王毅表示,中方已向尼泊爾「分享包括災區影像、衛星與水文數據,以及上游堰塞湖的預警等關鍵資訊」。

坎乃爾稍早也向媒體表示,尼泊爾需要更多研究,以「了解喜馬拉雅生態系變遷的動態」,以及這些變化對這個內陸國家構成的風險。

為下游將近20億人口提供關鍵水源的喜馬拉雅冰川,隨著全球暖化加劇正加速融化,使沿線社區暴露於難以預測且代價高昂的災害風險中。

坎乃爾說:「我們一再強調,尼泊爾排放的溫室氣體不足全球的0.01%,但尼泊爾人民卻是氣候變遷及其衝擊的主要受害者之一。」

「因此,我們呼籲全球社會一同攜手,保護喜馬拉雅生態系。」

冰川融化和永凍土層解凍亦會造成山坡不穩,增加山崩等災害風險。(編譯:蔡佳敏)

Nepali army breaks through hydropower tunnel to reach trapped workers after glacial flood

Nepali army rescuers broke through a hydropower tunnel on Saturday to pump air and send a camera inside, raising hopes of reaching workers trapped since devastating floods struck the site three days earlier. Over 100 workers may still be alive in the tunnels at Trishuli 3A and 3B sites, part of 933 hydropower workers missing after a glacial collapse on the China-Nepal border caused a wall of mud and debris, resulting in nearly 3,000 missing and 682 confirmed dead.

日本網友在便利商店ATM提領1萬元紙鈔時發現鈔票上印有布丁狗圖案,經放大確認非AI造假後發文至社群平台X,吸引超過2400萬人次觀看。依照日本法律,該紙鈔仍可使用,但原PO決定前往銀行換成普通鈔票。網友評論認為此舉雖屬無刑責的『迷惑』行為,但亦有人質疑ATM未顯示錯誤或表達可愛卻不實用的看法。
