Dharmashala: His Holiness the Dalai Lama granted a special audience to the climate activists and participants at his residence this morning.
The participants are here in Dharamshala for a three-day dialogue on climate action titled ‘Dialogue for Our Future: A call to Climate Action’ in commemoration of the Earth Day observed on 22 April.
Climate change advocates like Sonam Wangchuk from Ladakh were among the participants who presented His Holiness an ice block from the glacier of Khardungla Pass in Ladakh to emphasise the rapid melting of glaciers due to global warming and climate change.
The three-day conclave on climate action is being co-hosted by Tibet Policy Institute, EURAC Research, Czechs Support Tibet, and the International Campaign for Tibet (ICT).
