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.

UniOne Global Industry Summit and the First Leadership Training Conference have been successfully concluded

Published

on

 

China,Hong Kong,Dec.20th.Responding to the Era of Global Uncertainty with Industrial Consensus and Organizational Capacity

In the context of ongoing reshaping of the global industrial structure and accelerated evolution of organizational forms, truly valuable conferences have long moved beyond mere information display or short-term incentives, instead focusing on strategic direction-setting, system development, and consensus-building.

The UniOne Global Industry Summit and the inaugural Leadership Training Program represent a systematic and in-depth dialogue centered on this core objective.

During the opening session, UniLabs ‘Chief Consultant delivered a keynote address, providing a systematic analysis of UniOne’s current development stage from the perspectives of global industrial cycles, organizational evolution, and long-termism. The speech not only reviewed the evolving trends in the global economy and industrial structure but also highlighted UniOne’s strategic path and core decisions within this cycle, establishing a clear and robust strategic foundation for the entire conference.

During the session, the co-founder of Uni Labs delivered a keynote presentation on UNIONE’s industrial strategy and development roadmap. The presentation provided a comprehensive overview of UniOne’s industrial framework, core business focus, and phased objectives. It not only covered the current priority sectors but also outlined the development pace and priorities for the coming period, enabling attendees to grasp UniOne’s long-term strategic vision holistically rather than focusing narrowly on individual businesses or short-term opportunities.

On the topic of industrial layout, the conference elaborated in depth on UniOne’s holistic ecosystem framework and development strategy, emphasizing diversified collaboration over singular reliance. Through clear industrial division of labor and collaborative mechanisms, it aims to build a systemic ecosystem with risk resilience and continuous evolution capabilities. This discussion not only addresses the question of’ what to do, ‘but also reveals the fundamental rationale behind’ why to do it.’

The conference’s economic model discussions focused on the long-term rationality of value creation and distribution mechanisms, systematically analyzing the interplay between participant roles, incentive structures, and ecosystem stability. Through rational and transparent analysis, it emphasized that sustainable development must be grounded in tangible value and clear rules, rather than relying on short-term emotions or external stimuli. This section provided participants with a critical framework to understand the overall functioning of the ecosystem.

 

The meeting expanded its focus to innovation and foundational capacity building, with in-depth discussions on innovation incubation, technical support, and organizational empowerment. Through a systematic analysis of the innovation ecosystem, it was emphasized that UniOne prioritizes not only business expansion but also the continuous development of core competencies and talent systems, ensuring stable support for the long-term sustainability of its ecosystem.

 

The conference will shift its focus from “individual capabilities” to “organizational synergy” in leadership and organizational development, emphasizing that leadership is fundamentally about building trust, fostering consensus, and continuously amplifying team effectiveness. Through sharing real-world cases and practical experiences, it explores how to build teams with execution, cohesion, and long-term resilience within multicultural and complex organizational structures.

The conference transcended isolated discussions of specific topics, instead weaving together industrial, model, organizational, and leadership dimensions to forge a cohesive cognitive framework. This approach enabled participants to gain a higher-dimensional understanding of their roles and future trajectories.

The UniOne Global Industry Summit and the inaugural Leadership Training Program wasn’t a one-time conclusion presentation, but rather a collaborative exploration of long-term value.

It does not convey the path to quick success, but how to build the ability and consensus of certainty in the uncertain times.

This is the core and the most long-term value of the conference.

Jonathan Franklin of Georgetown University Highlights How Coverage Itself Shapes Missing Persons Cases

Published

on

Washington, D.C, 20th December 2025, ZEX PR WIREJonathan Franklin has reported many high-profile national stories, but one beat continues to shape his thinking: how media attention—or the lack of it—affects the outcome of missing persons cases. In his work for NPR, Franklin has drawn a clear line between editorial decisions made in newsrooms and real-world consequences for families, communities, and the public’s understanding of urgency.

Franklin, who holds a master’s degree in journalism from Georgetown University, believes one of the most underreported facts in American media is this: coverage itself is an intervention. “There’s this quiet assumption that journalism is observational. In missing persons stories, that’s never been true,” he said.

His reporting doesn’t claim to solve cases. It doesn’t make promises. What it does is document the structural gaps that determine who get covered, when, and for how long. For families who have lost someone, that timing matters. “When attention comes early, systems move faster,” Franklin said. “When it doesn’t, families are left trying to create urgency themselves.”

Patterns in Coverage, Patterns in Silence

Franklin’s reporting on missing persons cases surfaced repeated disparities in how race, gender, and perceived social status affect media treatment. His work incorporated both individual family accounts and systemic analysis, drawing on datasets that showed a consistent trend: missing persons of color receive far less media attention, even when their circumstances are similar to widely covered cases.

This dynamic, sometimes referred to as “Missing White Woman Syndrome,” was coined by journalist Gwen Ifill to describe the disproportionate media interest in young, white, middle-class women. Franklin’s work approached that phrase not as a slogan but as a hypothesis—one that he put to the test using editorial history, family interviews, and statistical context.

One key subject in his reporting was the launch of the “Are You Press Worthy?” tool by Columbia Journalism Review and TBWAChiatDay New York. This public-facing algorithm allowed people to estimate their likelihood of media coverage if they were to go missing, based on factors like age, race, and gender. Franklin covered the tool not for novelty, but for what it revealed: that journalists already knew how bias worked in theory, yet few were changing their practices in response.

Working the Gap Between Journalism and Justice

While Franklin is not an activist, his reporting has helped bridge conversations between journalists and advocates. He has covered the work of the Black and Missing Foundation and independent projects like Our Black Girls, which document missing persons stories that traditional outlets often ignore.

Instead of turning his reporting into a callout, Franklin focuses on systems. He gives newsroom leaders space to talk through editorial logic, hesitation, and resourcing issues. At the same time, he reports on the silence experienced by families who don’t receive coverage until public pressure builds—or never receive it at all.

“There’s no need to sensationalize what’s already painful,” Franklin said. “Families don’t want pity. They want momentum.”

That balance—between institutional critique and human context—is what distinguishes his work. Colleagues note that Franklin is comfortable sitting with discomfort. His stories don’t close with false resolution. They end where the story, for the family, is still ongoing.

How Journalism Shapes Outcomes

Franklin’s training at Georgetown emphasized structural thinking and accountability. Combined with field reporting experience at WUSA9 and NPR, he brings both a theoretical and practical lens to media responsibility. In his view, the idea that coverage is neutral no longer holds.

“If media attention correlates with better outcomes, then ignoring someone is not a neutral act. It’s a decision with consequences,” he said.

Franklin’s stories are now being used in classrooms, journalism workshops, and internal newsroom sessions about equitable coverage. But he resists any label that places him above the work. He sees his role as iterative. “There’s always someone we missed. The goal isn’t perfection. It’s consistency,” he said.

A Voice Built on Verification, Not Volume

Unlike social media campaigns that chase virality, Franklin’s work stays grounded in verified facts, ethical sourcing, and follow-through. He prefers to let families speak directly when possible. He also resists flattening complex stories into singular narratives of hope or tragedy.

He holds undergraduate degrees from Wofford College in English, Digital Media, and African and African American Studies. That academic background shaped his ability to frame race and justice not as themes, but as ongoing conditions that influence how stories are told and received.

His recent reporting continues to revisit the question: what happens when the public never hears your name? It’s not only about missing persons, but he also says. It’s about visibility as currency. “Attention isn’t the solution,” Franklin said. “But the absence of it is a barrier from the start.”

Looking Ahead

Jonathan Franklin remains committed to reporting stories that explore how institutions respond to crisis. Missing persons cases are one example. His broader work includes coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic’s racial disparities, public protests, court decisions, and elections. But missing persons reporting, he says, always brings him back to the core question of journalism itself: what does it mean to be seen?

For Franklin, that question is not rhetorical. It’s the difference between silence and action.
