Decades-old toxic chemicals are melting out of Himalayas now
News
13 Aug 2019 | The Weather Channel
The Himalayas, which feed numerous perennial rivers of South Asia with pristine water, have now become a source of toxic chemicals too! Despite being far away from the actual source of pollution, glaciers often act as cold storage units for many persistent toxic chemicals. But once the ice starts to melt, the toxic pollutants are released back into the environment.
