25、sias mountain glaciers (冰川) will lose at least a third of their mass through global warming by the centurys end, with serious consequences for millions of people who rely on them for fresh water, researchers have said. The high mountains of Asia consist of a geographical region surrounding the Tibet
26、an Plateau, holding the biggest store of frozen water outside the poles. It feeds many of the worlds great rivers, including the Ganges, the Indus and the Yarlung Zangbo River, on which hundreds of millions of people depend. Nearly 200 nations adopted the Paris Agreement in 2015, which sets the goal
27、 of limiting warming to a level of “well below” 2 , while “pursuing effort” to achieve a lower celling of 1.5. Earths surface has already warmed by about 1, according to scientists. The Asian high mountains, the new study said, were already more rapidly than the global average. A global temperature
28、rise of 1.5 would mean an average increase in the region of about 2.1, with difference between mountain ranges-all of which will warm by more than 1.5. The Hindu Kush mountain range would warm by about 2.3 and the eastern Himalaya Mountains by 1.9, the study forecast.“Even if temperature stabilize a
29、t their current level, (glacier)mass loss will continue for decades to come,”the researchers added. “For the high mountain glaciers to survive, it is vital to reduce the global temperature increase to the lowest possible level.”A study in July in the journal Nature Climat Change said there was only
30、a 5% chance of holding global warming under 2. For 1.5, the chance was about 1%. On current trends, some experts project Earth is on track to warm by about 3.32 .
