China's glacier research warns of deserts and floods due to warming

The world's highest ice fields are melting so quickly that they are on
course to disappear within 100 years, driving up sea levels,
increasing floods and turning verdant mountain slopes into deserts,
Chinese scientists warned yesterday.
After the most detailed study ever undertaken of China's glaciers,
which are said to account for 15% of the planet's ice, researchers
from the Academy of Science said that urgent measures were needed to
prepare for the impact of climate change at high altitude.
