巴基斯坦北部的农民正在制造人工冰川, Farmers in northern Pakistan are creating artificial glaciers, called "ice stupas," to boost water supplies affected by climate change. 在印度工程师索南·旺楚克的启发下,这一技术涉及在冬季向空气喷洒水,以形成作为储存系统的冰塔,在春季逐渐融化。 Inspired by an Indian engineer, Sonam Wangchuk, the technique involves spraying water into the air during winter to form ice towers that act as a storage system, melting gradually in spring. 自2018年以来,已有20多个村庄采用这一方法,向16 000多名居民供水,延长作物生长季节。 Since 2018, over 20 villages have adopted this method, providing water to more than 16,000 residents and extending the growing season for crops.
