Floods and Droughts.

The Himalayas control the rivers in Asia by storing water in glaciers and snow and releasing it gradually. Melting means that rivers will flood in the wet season, but dry up in the dry seasons. This is affecting the lives of millions of people.

Monsoon rains are also being affected, and this is changing the agriculture yields in countries like India.
