  • clean air, clean & enough water are above all for survival. none of humans can change this...if we are not able to stop the whole process of melting, Nature will give Its solution....."Nature will obviously survive, i am not sure, the humans will, too.." Cousteau

  • Water: More Important than Oil

    Water is becoming increasingly important and scarce, particularly clean water. It is not only a primary resource, needed for living, but also a managed resource.

    When you get right down to it. Water is cheap. And when you think about its value, it is more important than oil.

  • How many countries do you know which are major economic forces and have few water resources?

    Why aren’t pipelines composed of an inner (oil) section and an outer (water) section so they can transport both resources within one pipeline?

    Lastly, why do we think there is an abundance of clean water available when there isn’t?

  • Facts:

    An estimated 70 percent of China’s rivers are polluted, leaving an estimated 300 million people with limited access to clean water.

    Almost half of the world’s population lives in the watersheds of the rivers whose sources lie on the Tibetan Plateau.

  • Scientists say glaciers on the Tibetan Plateau are receding faster than in any other part of the world — if the rate continues, most will gone by 2035.

    There are more than 1000 lakes on the Tibetan Plateau, including the world’s highest salt lake — Namtso (Nam Co).

    Both sourced in the Tibetan Plateau, the Yangtze (Chang Jiang) River and the Yellow River serve roughly 520 million people in China.

    The Yangtze River is the third-longest in the world, after the Amazon and the Nile.

  • made my day!!! thanks webmovietube

  • You don't have to look any further than the dammimg of Mekong river by the Chinese. The Chinese essentially not only destroyed Tibet but Burma, Thailand, Laos and Vietname in term of economic impact. Forget about the environment impact altogether ......... the Chinese just does not care period!

  • Thanks for this video!

  • China is nothing without Tibet and it mountain region. I have seen this for myself, and yes, there is so much gold and other minerals in these mountains. Tibetan nomads can no longer have free yaks. This is a major problem.
