<p>The prospects for Climate Change in Svalbard are above normal when compared to the rest of Europe, air temperatures have risen very quickly in the Svalbard archipelago in recent decades (Nordli et al., 2014).</p>

<p>Some of the highest peaks in the world are present in the Himalayas, which lie south of the Tibetan Plateau. India also has many other mountain ranges such as the Karakoram Range, the Aravali Range and many other minor ranges in the Deccan Plateau.</p>

<p>Other the polar regions, the Himalayas follow as the largest deposit of frozen water in the world, especially in the case of Himalayan glaciers. Himalayan glaciers make up about 17 per cent of the Himalayas and about 37 per cent of the Karakoram Range.</p>

<p>Climate Change in the Himalayas is a major topic of worry for climate watchers in the Subcontinent and across the world. The Himalayas have the largest deposits of snow and ice in the world outside the Polar Regions and is often referred to as the ‘Third Pole’ and also as the ‘Water Tower of Asia’.</p>

<p>However, in the 1990s an international team supposedly discovered microbes in the accretion ice just above the lake that could derive energy from minerals in the lake and in the surrounding rocks.</p>

<p>In fact India’s population density fell between the 1911 to the 1921 Census by 1.2 per cent. Since then India’s population density has been steadily rising with much higher percentage growths.</p>

<p>पृथ्वी पर मौजूद सभी प्रणालियों को संगठित किया जा रहा है और समेकित अध्ययन जिनमें वातावरण, भूगर्भमंडल, जैवमंडल शामिल हैं, के अध्ययनों को समेकित करके सभी को एक साथ रखा जाता है।]</p>

<p>Not being residentially inhabited by human populations and instead being a place where largely scientific research is the mainstay, one would expect Antarctic biodiversity to be more protected than biodiversity in other, more populated regions of the world. However, this may not be the case for Antarctic biodiversity.</p>

<p>The effects of climate change are being felt in the Arctic more immediately and severely than in most other regions in the world. Even inferentially, the Arctic is warming at a rate that is two times that of the global average.</p>

<p>Indigenous knowledge has great scientific value as it can be instrumental in efforts towards scientific raw data and also conservation. Such is the case of indigenous knowledge of Himalayan medicinal plants, which can be rooted in a culture’s heritage.</p>
