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

Published

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.

London, United Kingdom, November 9th, 2026, FinanceWire

Social trading platform IDTraders has registered International Distributed Trading Ltd in England and Wales to support its expansion into new regions, and is recruiting regional partners and country directors.

IDTraders, a social trading platform, has registered International Distributed Trading Ltd in England and Wales (company number 17528088) as part of its global expansion. The company now operates the platform at idtraders.com and serves as the base for its growth into new regions. Account registration is open to traders internationally, and the company is building local teams and partner networks in each region it enters.

“Registering in the United Kingdom gives IDTraders a clear base for its next stage of growth. We are building teams in each region we enter, led by people who know their own markets and speak their members’ language,” said a spokesperson for IDTraders.

Platform Operations and Features

Social trading allows a person to follow another trader and have that trader’s positions copied into their own account. On IDTraders, experienced traders known as master traders make their trading available to be copied. Each master trader’s profile shows a track record calculated from closed trades, including returns, drawdown, length of trading history and number of followers.

Members choose an amount to allocate to a master trader, and each trade is copied in proportion to that amount. Funds remain in each member’s own wallet, and master traders do not have access to them. Members can follow copied trades as they happen and end a copy at any time.

Risk limits set by members

Each copy carries limits chosen by the member. An auto-stop closes the copy if its equity falls by a percentage the member sets, and daily and total loss limits are also available. A stop-out system checks every open position every fifteen seconds.

Fees and settlement

Profit from copied trades is shared at settlement between the member, the master trader, the introducing network and the platform. Each master trader settles daily, weekly or monthly. No fee is charged on trades that close at a loss, and there are no deposit fees.

Regional hiring

IDTraders is recruiting people from each region it enters, including regional partners and country directors who will lead the company’s work in their own markets, build local partner networks and support members in their own languages. Open roles are listed on the careers page.

Partner network

IDTraders runs an introducing broker (IB) program, through which partners refer new members to the platform. The program has more than 450 approved partners, and the company is adding partners in South Asia and other regions. Applications are open on the partner page (https://idtraders.com/become-a-partner). Member support is offered in English, Bengali, Hindi, Urdu and Tagalog.

Live sessions

The company is planning to host twelve live webinar sessions each month in multiple languages, covering how social trading works and how to use the platform.

Platform features

The platform covers major and minor currency pairs, gold and silver, cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin and Ethereum, and US stock indices. Deposits and withdrawals are made in USDT on the BEP-20 and TRC-20 networks. Members also have live prices, an economic calendar and an in-portal guide called Kiro. With Investor View, a member can share a read-only link to their account, choosing what it shows and how long it stays valid. The platform is available on the web and through the IDT Social app for Android.

Account security

Each account is identity-verified before its first withdrawal, and a live face check is requested for certain withdrawals, such as those to a new wallet address or from a new device.

About IDTraders

IDTraders is a social trading platform on which members copy the trades of master traders into their own wallets. It is operated by International Distributed Trading Ltd, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (company number 17528088), with its registered office at 128 City Road, London EC1V 2NX, United Kingdom. More information is available at idtraders.com.

Scores24 Introduces Side-by-Side Review of Seven Bookmakers Serving Paraguay

New ranking examines payment methods, currency options, live coverage and verification steps for Paraguayan users

Scores24, a sports information and comparison company, has released a new comparison of bookmakers available to users in Paraguay. The study, verified in October 2026, reviews seven operators: 1xBet, Melbet, Betwinner, Bet365, 22bet, Megapari and Stake.

According to Scores24, conditions are not the same for every player in the country. The comparison applies one consistent framework to each operator, looking at company background and licensing, account currency, payment methods, live coverage and welcome bonus terms. Particular attention is given to whether users can operate in guaraníes (PYG), foreign currencies or cryptocurrencies.

Regulation in Paraguay

A central part of the release is the local regulatory picture. Scores24 explains that CONAJZAR, the national gaming authority, recognizes Daruma SAM, operating under the Aposta.la brand, as an authorized concessionaire. Under Law 7438/2025, a limited number of locally licensed operators may be authorized. The seven operators in the comparison hold licenses from other jurisdictions, including Curaçao, Gibraltar and Anjouan, and Scores24 stresses that these do not amount to CONAJZAR authorization in Paraguay.

Payments, Markets and Live Coverage

The sportsbook comparison shows that payment options differ noticeably between platforms. Some operators support local methods such as Banco Atlas, Bancard QR and bank transfer, while others rely mainly on cards, e-wallets and cryptocurrencies. Limits vary by method, so Scores24 advises users to confirm current values inside their account before depositing or requesting a withdrawal.

Football is the core of the sports offer, with common markets including match result, handicap, total goals, exact score, half-time/full-time, corners and cards. Availability of live streaming varies by operator and by sport, and the guide notes that some platforms stream a wider range of events than others.

Verification and Registration

The guide outlines a typical registration process and explains that operators may request Know Your Customer (KYC) identity verification before the first withdrawal. Requested items can include a Paraguayan identity card or passport, a selfie with the document, and personal details that match both the account and the owner of the payment method. For mobile access, all seven operators work from a phone browser, and Scores24 recommends that Android users download an APK file only from an operator’s official site.

“Our goal is to give Paraguayan readers a clear, side-by-side view of how these platforms work, including what their licenses do and do not mean locally,” a Scores24 spokesperson said.

Informational Purpose

The comparison is provided for information only. It does not predict sporting results or promise returns, and bonus terms and limits are best checked directly in each operator’s published conditions.

About Scores24

Scores24 is an independent source of sports data and operator comparisons. Its team reviews licensing, payment options and platform features so readers can evaluate providers on equal terms. Those researching the best sportsbook for Paraguay can find the full Scores24 Paraguay bookmaker comparison on the company’s website.

Scores24 Unveils Angola Sportsbook Ranking Built Around Local Payments, Support and Licensing

Exclusive list evaluates six operators on the factors that matter most to Angolan bettors

Scores24, an online platform that researches and compares betting operators, has published its ranking of bookmakers in Angola for October 2026. The ranking is meant to help local users choose platforms that fit how betting works in the country, from payment habits to customer support.

The ranking reviews six operators: Elephant Bet, Premier Bet, BantuBet, Melbet, Mobet and KwanzaBet. Each is assessed against the same criteria, including customer support, protection of funds and personal data, bonus terms, market variety, payment acceptance, mobile performance, Portuguese-language quality and withdrawal speed.

Built for the Angolan Market

Scores24 says the ranking reflects conditions specific to Angola. Multicaixa Express is central to everyday payments, and many bettors rely on vouchers bought at physical points instead of bank cards. Because mobile data can be costly and unreliable, lightweight websites and support through WhatsApp or Telegram carry extra weight. Football leads local interest, particularly European leagues and the Girabola, followed by basketball, MMA, boxing and esports.

The analysis also covers features suited to local habits, including SMS and USSD betting, booking codes that let users build a slip on a phone and settle it at a physical point, cash-out tools and Asian handicap markets.

Licensing and Operator Types

The ranking separates locally authorized brands from international platforms. Local operators work under the supervision of the Gaming Supervision Institute (ISJ), accept kwanzas and often maintain physical service points. International platforms may offer wider event coverage but typically rely on cryptocurrencies or e-wallets because of exchange-control limits. Scores24 notes that licensing is being modernized and that a transitional regime currently lets established brands operate while permanent procedures are completed.

Bonuses and Promotions

For this sportsbook ranking, Scores24 also reviews the promotional formats on offer, such as first-deposit bonuses and free bets after a losing wager. Rather than focusing on headline offers, the ranking explains rollover, deadlines and conditions of use. A separate bonus guide covers these terms in more detail.

“Bettors in Angola deserve a comparison grounded in local realities, not generic checklists,” a Scores24 representative said. “We want readers to see how each platform handles payments, support and regulation before they register.”

Independent and Informational

Scores24 states that the ranking is for information only. It does not predict sporting results or promise returns, and users are encouraged to confirm each operator’s current terms and licensing status before opening an account.

About Scores24

Scores24 researches and compares betting operators across multiple markets, publishing structured reviews that cover licensing, payments, bonuses and platform quality. Readers seeking trusted sportsbook options in Angola can read the full Scores24 Angola bookmaker ranking on the company’s website.
