My detailed interview on Science Diplomacy and research cooperations.
'From science journalist to scientist, Kattel’s epic journey from Nepal’s remote hills of Bhojpur to the research halls of Beijing is a matter of attention as well as inspiration for many. In this extensive interview, Nepal Press’s Birat Anupam has inquired about DB Kattel’s personal and professional journey and the potential for science diplomacy between Nepal and China.'

Dear Dambaru,I wonder if the situation is predictable enough to drain such lakes to keep the levels steady, and at the same time produce hydroelectric power?While the flow lasts, perhaps it is good to make use of the energy, and reduce the risk of sudden outbursts at the same time (I would be surprised if this is a new idea).Often, hydrolelectric projects require the creation of lakes that then become a new danger, but if the lakes are forming as a result of unexpected glacial melting, then managing their size and extracting energy might be one way to gain something from the situation, since the world is not going to change quickly enough to save the glaciers....P.
There have been many reports about glaciers melting in the Himalayas - is this something that is also affecting Nepal?
