LANGUAGE: Hindi
In the Spiti Valley of Himachal Pradesh, herders in the village of Langza face the harsh effects of climate change at 14,500 feet. Due to global warming, snowfall and rainfall have drastically decreased, resulting in insufficient grass for their livestock. This shift in weather patterns threatens the traditional livelihoods of the community, forcing herders to travel farther to find adequate grazing land for their animals.
