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

Published

on

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.

Fifsee Brings FIFSCORE, AI Studio and Personalized AI Real Estate Intelligence to 118 Countries

Published

on

One platform for FSBO buyers, sellers, travelers, renters and business users — featuring FIFSCORE, AI restyling with recoloring and furniture modeling, 3D modeling, market insights, and Get Connected – Worldwide.

United States, 4th Jul 2026 — Global real estate represents the world’s largest asset class, valued at over $3+ trillion — yet the vast majority of the billions of individuals who participate in it as buyers, renters, property owners, investors, business operators, and travelers do so without access to quality, personalized market intelligence. The information advantage has historically accrued only to those who can afford professional advisors, institutional research, or well-connected networks. Today, Fifsee Inc., a Frisco, Texas-based AI technology company, announces the full global availability of its platform — with 100,000+ users already active across 118 countries — bringing role-specific intelligence, FIFSCORE, and AI advisor Fia to every participant in the global real estate ecosystem, on web, iOS, and Android.

FIFSCORE: The World’s First Personalized Real Estate Intelligence Score at Global Scale

FIFSCORE is Fifsee’s proprietary personal intelligence score — and the first of its kind to operate at true global scale. A first-time buyer in Mumbai, a landlord in Dubai, a tenant in London, a vacation rental host in Bali, a commercial business owner in Singapore, a traveler relocating from Toronto to Lisbon, and a seller in Sydney each receive a FIFSCORE calibrated to their specific role, local market, financial context, and transaction stage. FIFSCORE does not deliver generic market data. It delivers your intelligence score, in your market, for your role — in real time.

118 Countries. Seven Roles. One Platform.

Fifsee is the only platform in the world that serves all seven real estate participant roles at global scale, each with a fundamentally different intelligence experience:

  • Buyers — AI-powered affordability analysis, price trajectory, mortgage intelligence, school district scoring, neighborhood demand signals, and cross-border property intelligence across all major global markets
  • Sellers — Listing competitiveness analysis, buyer demand signals, pricing strategy intelligence, and market timing insights calibrated to local conditions in any country
  • Tenants — Rental affordability scoring, lease market benchmarks, neighborhood quality analysis, and relocation cost intelligence across the world’s most competitive urban rental markets
  • Landlords — Yield benchmarks, vacancy trend forecasting, tenant demand analysis, and cross-border portfolio performance intelligence for property owners across 118 markets
  • Travelers — Door-to-door travel cost intelligence, visa guidance, accommodation market data, local area briefings, and destination FIFSCORE analysis for every global destination
  • Hosts — Short-term rental pricing intelligence, seasonal occupancy benchmarks, competitive positioning, and revenue optimization for hosts across every global platform and market
  • Businesses — Competitor snapshots, margin intelligence, SWOT analysis, commercial zoning insights, and strategic market positioning across 35+ business categories in any country

Fia: The World’s First Role-Aware Real Estate AI Available in 45 Languages

Powering every role, in every country, is Fia — a floating AI assistant available in voice and text across 45 languages. Fia is role-aware and user-aware: she knows whether you are a buyer in Brazil, a landlord in the UAE, a business owner in South Korea, or a traveler planning a move from Canada to Portugal — and she tailors every response, recommendation, and market insight to your specific situation. For the billions of people around the world who navigate real estate without professional support, Fia is the advisor they have never been able to access.

Democratizing Intelligence Across the World’s Most Underserved Real Estate Markets

In mature markets like the U.S., U.K., and Australia, Fifsee competes on intelligence quality and role-specificity. In high-growth markets across South and Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, and Sub-Saharan Africa — where real estate markets are opaque, professional advisory is expensive, and information asymmetry is greatest — Fifsee delivers something entirely new: a professional-grade AI advisor and market intelligence score accessible to anyone with a smartphone. The platform is free to download and free to get started — globally.

Get Connected: AI-Matched Professionals Across 118 Countries

Get Connected matches users to verified real estate agents, mortgage brokers, attorneys, property managers, and over 35 categories of service professionals — in any country — using AI to match by need, location, and transaction context. For users in markets where professional networks are inaccessible or expensive to navigate, Get Connected delivers qualified professional connections that would otherwise require weeks of effort and significant advisory spend.

“We didn’t build another real estate app. We built an intelligent engine that understands who you are, where you are, and what you need — and then acts on it. Every user gets a FIFSCORE — a personal intelligence score that tells them exactly where they stand in their real estate journey. That’s Fifsee.”

— Sri Varadhan, Founder, Fifsee Inc.

Tokyo, Japan, 3rd Jul 2026 – CyberAgent, Inc. is excited to unveil the opening movie for the anime The World Is Dancing (co-produced by CyberAgent and Shochiku), set to the opening theme song “shusho” by Macaroni Empitsu, ahead of the anime’s premiere today, July2.

Set to Macaroni Empitsu’s track “shusho,” the opening movie features a visual touch distinct from the main anime, vividly transitioning from stark black-and-white into vibrant colors. The sequence beautifully captures the series’ dynamic energy and ephemerality. Furthermore, the staff credits featured in the sequence, including the director’s name, were handwritten by Satoshi Nemoto, who also created the calligraphy for the series’ official title lettering.

As he meets people, laughs, cries, and faces his own weaknesses, he shapes a new form of dance in an ever-changing world. It is a tale that might have unfolded when the boy who would one day create Noh—Zeami—was still known as Oniyasha, carrying his legacy across 600 years to the present.

The anime is produced by animation studio, Cypic. The series is directed by Toshimasa Kuroyanagi, known for his work on the TV anime The Great Passage, the animated film Love Me, Love Me Not, and both the TV and theatrical versions of the Backflip!! series.

The series recently won a Special Award at the Short Shorts Film Festival.
