The threat of one-horned rhino poaching, which was at its peak during the armed insurgency, is no more. What’s worrisome is the high number of deaths in the past few years from unspecified natural causes.

First-time filmmaker and long-time journalist Neelima Vallangi is using her various platforms to raise awareness of the personal effects of climate change.

According to its study, there will be a 30-70 percent rise in the frequency of landslides in the border regions of China and Nepal that would pose threats to the region’s infrastructure and communities living downstream.

It needs to let go of the ‘victim mentality’ and call out states responsible for carbon emissions, panelists said.

The Environment and Social Impact Assessment report only provided an estimate, new survey will provide exact number, officials say.

International scientists have linked aberrant rain patterns with climate change, but Nepal lacks homegrown studies to confirm the cause.

Despite improvements in fuel economy and drop in CO2 emissions, the country needs to do more for dealing with its air quality, experts suggest.

All kinds of developers need to plant 10 saplings trees against cutting down of a tree at project sites as government strives to extend forest cover at local levels with zero forest area.

As most vehicles are poorly maintained and do not meet the government’s emission standards, cleaner fuels are unlikely to have much effect, say environmentalists.

The park covers an area of 637.39 sq km and is spread across Parsa, Bara and Makwanpur districts.

Weather to start improving from today but will remain mostly cloudy, according to the weather office.

As rising temperatures expose land under snow in the mountains, the treeline is moving up. A new study reveals the alarming situation but scientists are unable to say exactly what the consequences will be.

Country’s only GCF accredited entity Alternative Energy Promotion Centre has been working on various project ideas for accessing climate finance.

There are about a dozen streams and 15 ponds inside the park. But most of them dry up during the dry season, between September to April.

Pine trees might have helped repopulate the country’s barren mid-hills but they could also have led to springs drying up and reduced vegetational diversity.

Recently, a male rhino was found dead on the bank of the Narayani river in Chitwan National Park.

Springs across the mid-hills have been losing water for decades, but things have gotten worse since the twin earthquakes four years ago.

Various forms of pollution, through their human and economic costs, constrain Nepal’s development, a World Bank report says.

This is for the first time the government is spending its own fund to count the rhino population.

Environmentalists wonder if the campaign in Kathmandu was simply a fad and whether the climate protests would continue.
