Walking through Asia’s water tower – the challenge of climate change on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
Article·Hengduan Mountain Research Society
As a global meteorological outpost, the mechanism and influence of climate change on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are complicated. In October 1998,he led the “Yarlung Zangbo River scientific rafting expedition”， drifted 1,600 kilometers from the Jiemayangzong Glacier in Zhongba County, Tibet, the source of the Yarlung Zangbo River, to Pai Township (today’s Pai Town) in Mainling County. After that, he crossed the Grand Canyon on foot and spent 35 days crossing the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon. In 2010, he launched another bold project, “Asian Water Tower — International River Survey on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau” and spent six months visiting a majority of international rivers on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Although he had explored most of the rivers on the Tibetan Plateau over the past 20 years, in this mission, he did a systematic, complete, inch-by-inch survey of the headwaters of Asian great rivers that originate on the Tibetan Plateau.
During the investigation, he felt the benefits that the implementation of the River Chief System in recent years has brought to the protection of both water resources and the relevant environment on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and he could clearly see the efforts of climate actions such as the layout of clean energy and de-coaling. But the unprovoked accusations, such as artificial rainfall on the Tibetan plateau, are always discouraging. Regardless of the standpoint of science, the well-rounded artificial rainfall, as a very scientific and rigorous scientific practice, has been used in the United States, Australia and other countries. However, many people still believe that artificial rainfall is to release some cold air into the clouds. The most important fact is that the Tibetan Plateau region of China has a small population and the natural ecology has been able to meet the need of local living conditions. Therefore, large-scale artificial rainfall has no practical application scenario and practical significance at all. To top it all off, some people believe that China is just competing with India for rainwater.
he have heard similar rumors and prejudices at many South Asian Non-governmental organizations’ symposium on international rivers. Most of the participants remarked, “It is amazing how little the media of each country knows about its neighbors.” In this environment of lack of communication and political suspicion, debate is often driven by lack of information and political smear, and alarmist media reports are more likely to fan the flames of national conflicts.
There has always been controversy around the discussion of climate change, especially the various claims of the scientific interpretation of the mechanism of climate change. What is even more puzzling is that negotiations on climate action, without strong scientific support, seem to only strive for profit, and humanity will lose its way if it continues like this. The scientific community has long believed that the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is the frontier of the earth science, with many key issues to be broken through. Tackling climate change will be futile or even disastrous before it is solved.
What are the main causes of climate change and glacier melting on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau? In recent years, some researchers have suggested that when the solar system moves out of the Quaternary Ice Age and into a higher background energy field, it is the cause of the temperature rise. However, he believe that the temperature rise at the altitude of 5,000 to 6,000 meters is mainly caused by the fact that a large amount of greenhouse gases emitted by human beings absorb heat in the atmosphere of the Tibetan Plateau in the atmospheric circulation. Therefore, they should face and share the responsibility together instead of making groundless accusations against any one country in order to deal with climate change on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and even over the whole world.
Vice President of the United States Harris pointed out recently, the war for water resources will come soon. In he’s opinion, both water resources and the influence of global warming on the Tibetan Plateau are a fait accompli, the unilateral effort of each country is only a temporary solution. Environmental protection is not just a matter of pure science, but if there is too much political manipulation and rancour involved, the problem gets trickier. The growth of all creatures depends on harmony. China and south Asian countries around the Tibetan Plateau create a new win-win cooperation of climate governance in such aspects as scientific research, the meteorological disaster warning, can not only monitor the secondary disasters caused by climate change, to avoid the life and property loss. More importantly, a collaborative and vivid climate action can provide the international community with a set of effective experiences that can be replicated in climate governance.
Climate change is already causing serious environmental problems on the Tibetan Plateau and the Brahmaputra River basin as I have proposed many times in international seminars. The international community should build consensus and join hands in tackling these threats especially the neighboring countries. Partha J. Das, a scientist from the Indian NGO Aaranyak, also pointed out at the symposium that these warnings apply to the Indian government as well. The Indian government plans to build 70 water projects on the upper reaches of the Brahmaputra River. China and India need face the common threats in cooperation. Referred to the outburst floods from the upper reaches of the Brahmaputra in June 2000, Das said: “Most of the damage could have been avoided if the media in both China and India had reported it widely.” Obviously, China and India are both on the same page at environmental and climatic changes on the Tibetan Plateau. He also claimed that China and India should enhance cooperation on flood early warning both in the Government and Non-governmental, signing a bilateral agreement and sharing hydrological observation data.

From Danish classrooms and teacher outreach to Geneva forums and projects reaching South Asia and New York, Scientology-supported initiatives continue to frame human-rights literacy as a practical civic tool
Brussels, Brussels, Belgium, 14th Mar 2026— Human-rights education remains one of the clearest areas of public activity linked to Scientologists across Europe, with recent work ranging from school-facing outreach in Denmark and community initiatives in Italy to institutional dialogue in Geneva and partnerships extending beyond the continent. Much of that activity is carried out through Youth for Human Rights International and United for Human Rights, educational initiatives supported by Scientologists and the Church of Scientology and centered on the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The broader framework is consistent with the United Nations’ own approach to human-rights education. The UN Declaration on Human Rights Education and Training describes access to such education as essential to promoting universal respect for rights and fundamental freedoms.
One of the most visible current examples comes from Denmark. According to Youth for Human Rights DK, volunteers attending the country’s yearly national Teacher’s Fair introduced several hundred visitors to the campaign and placed 79 Educator Kits directly into teachers’ hands. The Danish group says that, with that latest distribution, more than 40 percent of Danish schools now have an Educator Kit. The figures build on a longer record already noted by Scientology Europe, which reports that Youth for Human Rights Denmark has been active since 2006 through classroom discussions, film screenings, creative workshops and the annual Walk for Human Rights in Copenhagen, and that the programme has received backing from the City of Copenhagen and support from Denmark’s Ministry of Culture.
The Danish initiative reflects the educational emphasis of the wider network. Youth for Human Rights International traces its origins to a European-wide youth essay competition launched in 2001, with winners from Hungary, the Czech Republic and Austria honored in Geneva. The organization says it was founded by educator Dr. Mary Shuttleworth to teach young people about the Universal Declaration and encourage them to become advocates of tolerance and peace.
Within the European Union, that educational approach has also taken a more explicitly civic form. In February, the European Office of the Church of Scientology for Public Affairs and Human Rights launched Europe’s Values, Your Rights, a youth-oriented guide explaining the EU’s six core values — human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law and respect for human rights — in plain language with links to official European sources. Scientology Europe said the guide was designed to help young adults connect European legal protections with everyday situations, including school life, work, online activity and civic participation.
Elsewhere in Europe, local initiatives have continued to combine rights education with community dialogue. In Milan, the Church of Scientology hosted a December gathering organized by the association Diritti Umani e Tolleranza, bringing together representatives from Latin American and African communities living in northern Italy. Participants completed training based on the United for Human Rights program and discussed how to use those materials in youth work, neighborhood outreach and local association activity.
That same theme was visible in Geneva, where the Palais des Nations hosted the conference “Human Rights and Peace – Better Together” around Human Rights Day in December. The meeting brought together educators, academics, civil-society actors and institutional representatives to discuss the connection between human-rights protection, social inclusion and peace. A panel on freedom of thought, conscience and belief was chaired by Ivan Arjona-Pelado, president of the European Office of the Church of Scientology for Public Affairs and Human Rights.
Human-rights activity linked to European Scientologists has also extended beyond Europe itself. In August 2025, Scientology Europe highlighted support provided by volunteers in the Netherlands to a Dutch-registered foundation working in Sri Lanka. According to the report, Stichting Mission Lanka, working with Vision Media Academy, held its sixth journalism and human-rights workshop for 100 students in Rathnapura, Sri Lanka, using United for Human Rights materials supplied through that collaboration.
International summits have offered another route through which European-supported human-rights work has connected with audiences outside the continent. Youth for Human Rights notes that its International Human Rights Summits have been held in Geneva, Los Angeles and at the United Nations headquarters in New York. In 2024, Scientology Europe reported on the 18th International Human Rights Summit in New York, where 52 young representatives from 35 nations joined government officials, educators and advocates to discuss education, law, media and community action as vehicles for implementing the Universal Declaration.
For Scientologists, this work is presented as rooted in the teachings of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, but expressed through secular educational and civic channels. The Creed of the Church of Scientology, written in 1954, affirms equal rights and inalienable freedoms, while the Code of a Scientologist describes a duty to work for human rights and justice through social reform.
The European Office describes its mission as representing the Church of Scientology and its humanitarian programs before the European Parliament, the European Commission, the Council of Europe, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe and the United Nations. On its official profile pages, the office also notes participation in the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights’ civil-society platform, reflecting the extent to which its public human-rights work is framed in dialogue with existing European and international institutions.
Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the European Union, the OSCE, the Council of Europe and the United Nations, said: “Human rights are strongest when they are understood not only by specialists, but by teachers, students, families and local communities. What is happening across Europe — and in projects supported by Europeans abroad — shows that civic responsibility begins with knowing one’s rights and respecting the rights of others. That is fully in line with Europe’s democratic values, with human dignity at their core.”
The Church of Scientology, its churches, missions, groups and members are present across the European continent. Scientology Europe reports a continent-wide presence through more than 140 churches, missions and affiliated groups in at least 27 European nations, alongside thousands of community-based social betterment and reform initiatives focused on education, prevention and neighbourhood-level support, inspired by the work of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.
Within Europe’s diverse national frameworks for religion, the Church’s recognitions continue to expand, with administrative and judicial authorities in Spain, Portugal, Sweden, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany Slovakia and others, as well as the European Court of Human Rights, having addressed and acknowledged Scientology communities as protected by the national and international provisions of Freedom of Religion or belief.
