The IPCC is saying that Himalayan glaciers are melting. Put himalaya glacier global warming or himalaya glacier climate change into Google and you will get hundreds of thousands of colourfully-alarming pages. "Millions face glacier catastrophe" says the Observer, "Global Warming Triggers Glacial Lakes Flood Threat" says the UN Chronicle... Take home - we are all fucked!!! But are we? Enter the real experts that study Himalayan glaciers. Believe it or not, there are only about dozen scientists working on India's 9,575 glaciers. VK Raina is a leading glaciologist and former ADG Geological Society of India. He disputes the IPCC's consensus position that global warming is melting Himalayan glaciers. Raina points out that only 50 out of India's 9,575 glaciers have been properly studied! Nearly 200 years of data coming from these 50 glaciers have not shown anything abnormal. Raina's views are echoed by Dr RK Ganjoo, Director, Regional Centre for Field Operations and Research on Himalayan Glaciology who also maintains that nothing abnormal has been found in any of the Himalyan glaciers studied so far by him. http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/181_1925164,0008.htm
