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.

Kingstown, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, October 15th, 2026, Chainwire
On October 15, with the help of independent security researchers, we found a vulnerability affecting one of the integrations used on the ChangeNOW website. The vulnerability has now been fixed.
We currently have no evidence that it was exploited. But we also can’t assume that the researchers who reported it were the only ones to find it. Because of that, we’re looking at the different possible scenarios and warning clients about the information that could potentially have been exposed. This may include email addresses and transaction details.
Please note ChangeNOW’s transaction infrastructure was not affected, and customer funds were never at risk.
The main thing clients should watch out for now is suspicious or fraudulent messages. A phony message could reference real transactions or support to appear legitimate. If you get an unexpected message that looks like it’s from ChangeNOW, please check the sender before responding, clicking on any links or giving any information. We exclusively contact clients via support@changenow.io and we will never ask for a private key, seed phrase, or any password by email.
People contact our support and compliance teams because they trust us with information they would not share publicly, and we understand the responsibility that comes with that. We have no indication this vulnerability was exploited, but we believe it is important to warn of the possible risks rather than wait until there is total certainty.
Our clients are at the center of what we do, and we’re continuing to upgrade the protection of our products. One of the actions we are taking is the launch of NOW AI, a dedicated protection lab with a mission to raise the security standard across all ChangeNOW products. We want to apply the same technology to the defensive side to spot danger earlier and bake stronger security into our products, especially as AI makes malicious action easier to automate and expand.
Today’s case only made the need to move faster more obvious and it accelerated the launch of NOW AI. We’ll publish more details on our plans, what it covers, and how it will be used across ChangeNOW on a dedicated page on our website soon. Stay tuned.

Panama City, Panama, October 15th, 2026, Chainwire
Pixagram announces free account creation for up to 250 new members daily through the end of 2026. Built on the standalone Layer-1 Pixa blockchain, Pixagram is an anti-hierarchy social network where every post, vote, and comment is recorded as a signed on-chain transaction, with no ads and no cryptocurrency purchase required to get started.
Pixagram will cover the 20 PIXA network fee for up to 250 new members daily through the end of 2026. New members can claim a free @username at Pixagram.com and join the platform’s on-chain community for creators.
► Quit Renting the Spotlight — Users can register at http://pixagram.com
An On-Chain Username and Wallet Address
Opening a Pixa chain account normally costs around 20 PIXA. Pixagram is covering this fee for up to 250 new members daily through the end of 2026.
- Username and wallet address: Each @username serves as an on-chain wallet address, replacing a randomly generated string of characters with a recognizable handle.
- Blockchain-based registration: Once registered on the blockchain, an @username remains associated with its on-chain record, subject to the network’s rules and technical conditions.
- Phone verification and privacy: One-time phone verification helps limit bot abuse of the daily account offer. A public @username can separate a creator’s online identity from their legal name, although public blockchain records may limit privacy.
Not Really Anti-Social, Truly Anti-Hierarchy
Mainstream social media serves advertisers while gatekeepers decide who sees your work. Pixagram—alongside platforms like Hive and Mastodon—is a SIGMA platform built for creators who prefer agency over status games. Your posts, art, followers, and feeds live directly on-chain with nothing in between, allowing you to reach every follower automatically.
NFT Platform Storage and Artwork Permanence
On many NFT platforms, the token sits on-chain while the image lives on a cloud server or IPFS—meaning a token can easily outlive its art.
On Pixa, every artwork is stored directly on-chain inside its post as a lossless image. Compact pixel art lives permanently on the blockchain and renders up to 4K resolution as a painting, CRT filter, hexagonal shapes, or square pixels.
- Zero upfront cost: Every new account receives a starter delegation of stake (Resource Credits fuel) to cover posting and voting from day one.
- Build Mode Note: Direct on-chain art sales launch in 2027, so everything you publish today builds your permanent portfolio ahead of the marketplace release.
► Less Lurking. One Original Post. Start at Pixagram.com
Proof-of-Brain and Community Curation
Instead of relying on the computational process used in Proof-of-Work systems, Pixagram uses Proof-of-Brain, a mechanism that allocates rewards based on posting, commenting, and voting activity.
- Community reward distribution: 70% of newly issued PIXA is allocated to community-voted content, with 60% distributed to authors and 40% to curators after seven days.
- Staking and governance mechanisms: Authors can receive Pixa Power, which determines voting weight and supports governance participation, and Pixa Supra (PXS), a unit referenced by an oracle to a agnostic purchasing power index (without a fixed dollar value). Curators can also receive Pixa Power.
Censorship-Resistant by Design
Built on the Hive codebase with Steem lineage, the Pixa chain started from a clean genesis block with no airdrop and produces a block every three seconds. While an application interface can hide a post from its view, it can never erase the transaction record from the chain.
Furthermore, every artwork is checked for copies using PAPH-X (an open-source perceptual fingerprint for pixel art) and indexed by the Search V4 engine.
“The old internet wants you trapped in feed fog, renting reach from gatekeepers who track every click. Today information is king, and Pixagram operates outside that hierarchy… Don’t believe the hype. Create it.” — Matias Affolter, Co-Founder of Pixa
“The strongest rebellion is a working alternative. We’re covering the network fee for 250 new accounts a day so any creator can step into build mode at zero cost. Claim your permanent @username now—because once a handle is written to the chain, it’s gone forever.” — Mathiew Estepho, Co-Founder of Pixa
Pixagram Account Registration and Developer Resources
Pixagram offers fee coverage for up to 250 new accounts daily through the end of 2026. Eligible new members can register and claim an @username at Pixagram.com. Additional technical information is available in the developer documentation at pixa.org.

SHENZHEN BERGEK TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. highlights its CNC machining and sheet metal manufacturing capabilities, supporting custom component development, quality inspection, and production for clients across multiple industries.
China, 15th Oct 2026 — SHENZHEN BERGEK TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD., a manufacturer specializing in computer numerical control (CNC) machining and sheet metal fabrication, has outlined its manufacturing capabilities supporting projects from computer-aided design (CAD) development through component production. The company serves customers across industries including healthcare, automotive, electronics, aviation, and industrial equipment, providing manufacturing support for both customized components and larger production requirements.
Bergek operates with ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certifications, covering quality management systems relevant to its manufacturing operations. Its capabilities include CNC milling, CNC turning, laser cutting, and related sheet metal manufacturing processes. These technologies support the production of components, equipment enclosures, and other parts developed according to customer specifications.
Manufacturing support across project stages
The process of moving a component from a digital design to a finished part involves multiple stages, including design review, material selection, machining, fabrication, finishing, and quality inspection. Manufacturing coordination across these stages can be important for businesses developing new products or sourcing components with specific dimensional and functional requirements.
Bergek’s manufacturing operations are structured to support different project stages and production volumes. Its capabilities encompass customized component development, small-batch manufacturing, surface treatment, and larger-scale production. This structure allows the company to address varying requirements associated with product development, testing, and manufacturing scale-up.
The company reports operating a network of three subsidiaries that support different customization and production needs. Its headquarters includes a marketing center, quality inspection center, and production assembly center, alongside a supply chain system intended to coordinate manufacturing activities and related processes.
Equipment and production capabilities
Bergek reports operating 78 pieces of manufacturing equipment, including laser-cutting machinery rated above 6,000 watts and five-axis machining equipment. These technologies serve different purposes in component manufacturing.
Laser cutting is used to process sheet materials into specified shapes, while CNC milling and turning produce components through controlled material removal. Five-axis machining allows cutting tools and workpieces to move across multiple axes, supporting the production of complex geometries and components that may require machining from several directions.
The combination of these processes gives manufacturers options for handling different part designs and fabrication requirements. Depending on the project, CNC machining and sheet metal fabrication can be used separately or combined to produce components and assemblies.
For buyers managing custom manufacturing projects, coordination between design requirements, production methods, and inspection procedures can influence production planning. The availability of multiple manufacturing processes within one operational structure can also help simplify communication between different stages of a project.
Serving customers across international markets
According to company-reported figures, Bergek has accumulated experience across more than 120,000 projects and has served over 3,600 clients. Its core customer markets are primarily located in North America, Europe, and Australia.
The company works with businesses involved in product design, engineering, and manufacturing, supporting projects that require customized components rather than exclusively standardized parts. Its reported customer base spans several sectors, reflecting the range of applications for CNC machining and sheet metal fabrication.
Bergek also reports having supported clients whose designs received international recognition, including the iF Design Award. The company further states that it supplies Alibaba-certified Fortune 500 companies. These reported relationships illustrate its involvement in manufacturing projects for customers operating across international markets.
Quality management and customized production
Quality management remains an important consideration when sourcing precision-manufactured components. Specifications for dimensions, materials, surface finishes, and assembly requirements must be translated into production processes and inspection criteria that correspond with the intended application.
Bergek’s stated ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certifications reflect its quality management framework. ISO 9001 addresses general quality management systems, while ISO 13485 is a quality management standard specifically associated with medical devices and related regulatory requirements. Certification alone does not establish that every manufactured component is suitable for every regulated application; suitability depends on the product, applicable requirements, and relevant verification procedures.
By combining machining, sheet metal fabrication, finishing coordination, and quality inspection within its manufacturing structure, Bergek supports projects with different technical and production requirements. Its operations address the needs of customers developing custom parts as well as businesses requiring repeat production.
As product development increasingly involves coordination between engineering teams and manufacturing partners, suppliers capable of working across design specifications and production stages remain part of the broader industrial manufacturing supply chain.
