> Nepal is holding a day of national mourning after floods killed more than 1,300 people, with thousands still missing. Climate policy specialist Abhishek Shrestha said the disaster is “undoubtedly” connected to climate change, citing Himalayan glacier retreat, and warned that 47 potential glacial lakes could burst, making similar incidents highly likely.
