Nepal 2015 quake and climate change linked to Himalayan landslide risk

Researchers suggest the 2015 Nepal earthquake, compounded by climate change, contributed to a catastrophic Himalayan landslide, and argue that predicting such disasters is possible but costly. The claim is based on scientific analysis, though specific landslide details and predictive feasibility remain uncertain. This matters as it highlights compounding geophysical and climate risks in mountainous regions.
