Climate Change and Koshi River.

Really the climate change is becoming threat to human beings especially to the people from developing nations like Nepal are most vulnerable to this.As an example we can read about the big flood in Koshi river.Many lost their lives,many lost their houses and the most important thing is that the flood covered thousand hectares of agriculture land with sand and stone which made the land unfertile for many generations.The Terai region which is known as the food basket of Nepal is also becoming not able cultivate.This is leaving a serious questions to all of us.One question may be how the country can feed its own citizen provided the Karnali and other many regions are declared as food insecure region?Another question is that how to reduce the price of foods so that even poor people can have access to food? As Nepal is still dependent upon India and other countries for foods.Due to climate change,the country has to buy more food or have to beg from other countries.So the most important question will be is it possible to maintain a sovereign relationship with other nations if the problem of climate change over hits Nepal.In my view in coming few decades the climate change is sure to affect the foreign relation of Nepal.

So my friends,we must concentrate on these questions.We have to increase the internal production.But how can we do that?It is one of the difficult questions.We have to seek new probabilities of internal production.The stories about increasing tourism and establishing hydro power from excess water have been heard since our childhood.But what are the results of the stories,we should focus on that.

I believe in such case we have to commercialize agriculture because when we see the history of USA and other developed nations we can draw themes that their current progress is because they had started from progress in their agriculture.This means in the fertile lands we have to start commercializing agriculture rather than adopting subsistence type of agriculture.
