Walking through Asia’s water tower – the challenge of climate change on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

Published

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.

Press Release

Inspired by his father, Xi Jinping centered his governance on people

Published

June 21, 2026

By

Today marks Father’s Day. CGTN published an article examining how Chinese President Xi Jinping was influenced by his father in his commitment to delivering benefits to the people, and highlighting how a people-centered governance approach has significantly improved living standards in China.

“No matter what your job title is, serve the people diligently, consider the interests of the people with all your heart, maintain close ties with the people, and always stay approachable to the people.”

These were the heartfelt words that Xi Zhongxun shared with his son, Xi Jinping. His advice would later become a guiding principle throughout the Chinese president’s political career.

A highly respected leader of the Communist Party of China (CPC), Xi Zhongxun devoted his life wholeheartedly to serving the people.

When Xi Zhongxun worked at the prefectural Party committee of Suide, northwest China’s Shaanxi Province, he once said, “We must wholeheartedly and honestly stand firmly on the side of the people.” While serving as the Party chief of south China’s Guangdong Province in 1978, he spent a summer visiting 23 counties across the province to learn firsthand about the local conditions and the lives of ordinary people. Accompanying him during part of the trip was his son, Xi Jinping, then a student at Tsinghua University, who witnessed his father’s close engagement with people at the grassroots level.

What his father said and did left a lasting impression on Xi Jinping.

Throughout his political career – from Liangjiahe and Zhengding to Fujian, Zhejiang, Shanghai and Beijing – Xi has consistently placed the people at the center of his work.

Since the 18th CPC National Congress, President Xi has conducted more than 50 inspection trips on poverty alleviation and visited all 14 contiguous impoverished areas across the country, listening firsthand to local residents about their challenges, needs and suggestions.

Over the years, Xi inspected production lines and inquired about technological innovation in factories and workshops, observed agricultural activities and gained firsthand insight into the lives of people in rural areas, and visited neighborhoods and households during festive occasions to extend his greetings.

Ahead of this year’s Spring Festival, Xi visited a community canteen at an apartment complex for seniors in Beijing to learn about local efforts to improve public convenience services and elderly care. He also spoke with delivery workers taking a break there, asking about their work and daily lives. Xi stressed that Party committees and governments at all levels must care for them and provide better services to support their lives and work.

That people-centered philosophy has gradually been translated into tangible improvements in everyday life. The toilet revolution, waste sorting, clean heating and food safety are among the more than 2,000 reform initiatives introduced over the past years to improve every facet of people’s daily lives.

The results are tangible. China, over a period of eight years, lifted nearly 100 million people out of destitution, officially eradicating absolute poverty in 2020. The country has also completed the building of a moderately prosperous society in all respects, and established the world’s largest systems for education, social security, healthcare and urban housing support.

Access to education at all levels has reached or surpassed the average for middle- and high-income countries. Basic medical insurance coverage has remained above 95%, life expectancy has risen above 79 years, and the middle-income group now exceeds 400 million people.

The people-centered approach is also reflected in China’s 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030), a blueprint for the country’s economic and social development. More than one-third of the plan is related to people’s livelihoods, covering employment, income, education, healthcare, elderly care and childcare – issues that are of the greatest and most immediate concern to the public.

As 2026 marks the 105th anniversary of the founding of the CPC, Xi has repeatedly stressed that Party members must bear in mind that working for the people’s well-being is their greatest political achievement.

The Architecture of Executive Influence: Why High-Performing Operators Struggle to Reach the C-Suite

Published

1 day ago

on

June 20, 2026

By

Brick, New Jersey, Jun 20, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — In the modern corporate landscape, a recurring paradox exists: high performance in Director through VP roles does not automatically translate into executive promotion. Many mid-career leaders find themselves hitting a professional ceiling because they remain “super-operators” focused on tactical execution rather than enterprise-wide influence. This plateau occurs when organizations emphasize immediate performance while neglecting the underlying leadership architecture required for senior-level advancement.

The Evolution from Execution to Strategy

Transitioning from operational excellence to enterprise-level leadership requires a fundamental shift in how a professional navigates their career. Brian Baldari, a veteran with a 23-year perspective on healthcare systems and executive strategy, posits that leadership transformation must begin with intentional design. Within the ResilExec Coaching framework, this philosophy is described as Strategic Architecture.

Strategic Architecture is a disciplined process for examining the alignment between an executive’s strategic value and their professional visibility within the enterprise. Rather than treating leadership as a collection of motivational principles, this methodology frames it as a structured system. Through this lens, high-potential leaders bridge the gap between tactical execution and enterprise-wide influence, constructing a leadership identity built on trust rather than just positional authority. Baldari notes that while traditional command structures may produce compliance, they rarely generate the long-term commitment required for organizational resilience.

Professional Certainty: The Foundation of Influence

A cornerstone of this transition is the attainment of Professional Certainty. This concept describes the absolute clarity an executive possesses regarding their purpose, influence, and strategic value within an organization. It is framed not as a soft skill, but as a rigorous system designed to align a leader’s intent with their impact.

When leaders operate with this level of clarity, they guide their trajectory with consistency rather than reactive decision-making. This stability forms the foundation of trust. By implementing structured strategy, leaders reinforce both accountability and psychological safety. In this environment, colleagues and stakeholders understand expectations while also recognizing that their perspectives are respected—a combination that encourages higher levels of engagement and long-term commitment.

Structural Wellness and the Visibility Asset

Another defining concept in the transition to the C-suite is Structural Wellness. Brian Baldari describes Structural Wellness as the alignment between authority, responsibility, visibility, and expectation. In many cases, professional friction is rarely a personality conflict; it is a design flaw. It occurs when a leader is given responsibility without the corresponding influence or visibility.

ResilExec addresses this through an intentional audit of how reporting lines and communication patterns either support or sabotage an executive trajectory. Misalignments in these areas gradually erode morale and create instability within organizations. By integrating Structural Wellness assessments into leadership development, Baldari examines how a leader’s current positioning—and the visibility attached to it—impacts their path toward executive influence.

When leaders understand where misalignment exists, they can recalibrate roles and expectations in ways that restore clarity. This architectural approach transforms leadership from a reactive process into a deliberate system of organizational design. By prioritizing Structural Wellness, executives create environments where both performance and wellbeing can coexist.

Strategic Visibility: Moving Beyond the Work

Strategic Visibility is the asset that separates operators from executives. To reach the highest levels of leadership, a professional must transition from being recognized for their work to being recognized for their enterprise-level insight and strategic value.

Brian Baldari frequently emphasizes that authority alone does not guarantee influence. Sustainable influence is constructed through credibility, clarity, and consistent leadership behavior. Leaders must examine how their actions shape perception across various stakeholder groups. While authority may grant initial decision-making power, long-term influence depends on trust and alignment. Organizations are more likely to support leaders who demonstrate consistency, fairness, and strategic awareness.

By shifting from reactive management to Career Certainty Architecture™, leaders are equipped to maintain calculated control even in the face of involuntary anomalies or external disruption. This shift represents one of the most important transformations in modern leadership development.

A Model Designed for the Future

ResilExec Coaching was established to address the recurring challenge of high-performing professionals who achieve operational excellence yet struggle to transition into strategic leadership roles. Through structured frameworks such as the Purpose Driven Ascent curriculum, the Visibility Architecture Map, and the Sponsorship Activation System, the program helps leaders construct a deliberate pathway toward executive influence.

These systems guide professionals in:

  • Strengthening strategic visibility.

  • Cultivating internal advocacy and sponsorship.

  • Aligning their work with enterprise priorities.

As organizations continue to navigate technological disruption and workforce transformation, leadership models must evolve. Brian Baldari believes the next generation of executives will be defined by their ability to cultivate trust while maintaining strategic discipline.

The shift from authority to influence is more than a career move; it is a fundamental evolution in how one leads. When organizations are designed around clarity, alignment, and structural integrity, they create environments where professionals can contribute with confidence and purpose. By integrating these principles with structured systems of influence, the ResilExec model aims to equip professionals with tools capable of sustaining both organizational performance and human wellbeing.
