LEH, India—The Ladakh region of northern India is one of the world’s highest, driest inhabited places. For centuries, meltwater from winter snows in the Himalayan mountains sustained the tiny villages dotting this remote land.
Now, like many other places in India, parts of Ladakh are running short of water. A tourism boom has sent the summer population soaring, and the region’s traditional system of conserving water is breaking down.
That's why we shouldn't burn forest.
India can buy water from Nepal in future.
More water in India means less ice in Greenland.
plenty of water. too much poo in it
when is monsoon season?
Yes but they have a space programme oh goody !
The Government of India PMOIndia is aware and alert to this issue and that's why a separate ministry 'जल संसाधन मंत्रालय' has been formed. Cleanliness, pollution control, conserve/save water etc are being dealt with people's participation.

because they have way too many people and this sort of mismanagement comes at a price
Instead of going to the moon, put effort in desalination.
Sigghhh another reason to be happy I live in upstate NY. Metro Rochester is bordered by a Great Lake to the north, finger lakes to the south and a river in between its got water for 20x the 1,000,000 in the city now
Control population birth rate, introduce family planning.

No wonder India is fighting for control of Kashmir, source of mountain water for Pakistan and India rivers

DerZuschauer7 Israel is ready to supply water desalination plants.
Mismanagement will do that.
Actually there whole state is busy in Genocidel actions of 8 million Kashmiris.. Most militarized region in the world and still their Opposition Leader is denied entry... Hitler is Reborn with the name Narendra Modi
I know! They could harass Kashmir. Be that would some their water shortages. Oh, wait...
I can see wars breaking out over there for diminishing resources
How many other countries are in a similar situation as India?
Then your neighbors above you are diverting it and you have not done anything to help yourselves for how long now?
Weather wars. geoengineering.
Indian way of irrigation is huge waste of water
OK....+++
You know, they could stop having so many damn kids.
a region that has had civilization for 4000 years... can't build a plumbing system.
Instead of spending their National Treasury on rockets and moon landings , they should be installing desalinization plants around the country to convert seawater into drinking water. Another novel approach would be tolling ice bergs to the sub continent.
Why do we care so much about oil and gas? water is more important for our survival... crisis
And the ocean is full of plastic and the Amazon forest is burning to hell. We have created this monster. I hope our gorgeous planet outlives us all. The shi!'s about to really hit the fan for humans.
And yet here we are in the good ole USA polluting our water supplies and wasting water on our luxury items. But these greedy people won’t feel any reservation about it even though people across the world are suffering.
Over population & climate change will destroy many nations on this earth. America needs to be very careful & vigilant.
Военные эксперты утверждают, что в мире начнётся череда войн связанная с нехваткой питьевой воды.
But, they still have time to robocall America and steal money.

India has seen worst floods during the past few days. Indians can live in droughts and floods much better than the western counterparts!
'more different ways'...seriously?! You're the f---ing Wall Street Journal! 😬
'Imagination is more important than knowledge.' - Albert Einstein
Tell us, why not use COINED STIMULUS to fund Desalination plants in the USA/UK/EU & ALL existing/former Colonies/Territories/Provinces to prevent mass extinction of Flora/Fauna via a simple network of IRRIGATION STRUCTURES to 'water the Earth' like a giant backyard w/surplus H2O?
BREAKING: The foreseeable diminution in the Himalayan snowpack due to unmitigated Climate Change is going to affect India AND Pakistan to such a pronounced degree that construction of Desalination plants should commence immediately to prevent widespread human/econ. suffering.
Perhaps just perhaps a population of a billion is not sustainable.
But they have a space program, there’s that? 😁
Oh no. World will have to help them.
Well, if Indians are so smart, let them find a solution....
We need a new plague

Once again wsj trots out ClimateChangeHoax as fact
Lol at 'breakdown of traditional systems of distributing resources' English, man. English. Tax breaks for the rich cause famine and drought. Keep it simple, man
I wish Trump cared about our environment. He only cares about Trump world. We are all in trouble.
So, day after day, we are seeing the signs
India has to fight a long fight against climate change but it's ignorant leadership doesn't have a clue, like india can finally clean up it's rivers and that all shoud be enough to feed nearly 19%of the world population, repair its infrastructure and actually save water.
😂 I suggest you watch Doordarshan every day for Authentic news of India. More than 40% of areas are affected by the flood in India.
Have they figured out a way to flush toilets without water?
sheilaaj Reverse osmosis.
They need to get back the shankara stones.
