Nepalese cabinet to hold Everest meeting

 

Updated at: 0840 PST, Friday, December 04, 2009  

 

KALAPATTAR: Nepalese ministers prepared Friday to fly to a remote mountain plateau in the shadow of Everest for a high-altitude cabinet meeting to highlight the impact of global warming on the Himalayas.

Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal and 22 other ministers underwent medical tests on Friday before being declared fit to travel by helicopter to the Kalapattar plateau, 5,262 meters (17,192 feet) up in the Himalayas. There, they will take part in a traditional Sherpa prayer ceremony before approving the speech to be delivered by the prime minister at next week's UN climate change summit in Copenhagen.

Scientists say the Himalayan glaciers are melting at an alarming rate and creating huge glacial lakes that threaten to burst, devastating mountain communities downstream.

They warn that the glaciers could disappear within decades, bringing drought to large swathes of Asia, where 1.3 billion people depend on rivers that originate in the Himalayas.

Easy is not to do poem rather very difficult to be honest

Voluntarily I opted to pen thus it is nothing but my test

Explain I news poetically is my hobby and I put in best

Revert I to the news I read in News, Pakistan with zest

Everest mountain hosts meeting injected me with quest

Seldom history can quote it or you tell if have in chest

Total cabinet led by PM had to pass special blood test

                                    M E E T I N G

Meets Nepal cabinet at Kalapattar that is ice no heating

Exchange they views on global climate that’s changing

Extol they will what Nepal does as weather is cheating

Then PM Kumar goes to Sweden attend global meeting

In fact various environment changes are so demanding

New methods and techniques be evolved for upbeating

Gauge you now yourself did I fail or pass for greeting

                     *****************

With my honest and solemn prayers
