| How does this production embrace sustainability?: |
The story focuses on an issue regarding sustainability and climate change adaptation. In Ladakh, many villages built artificial glaciers to supply water needed in spring for agricultural activities. |
| Synopsis: |
On the chain of the Himalayas, in the remote and desertic mountain valley of Zanskar, the local populations have always depended on glaciers which, melting during spring, provided the necessary quantity of water for cultivation and life. Today, in an uneven battle against climate change, the Ladakhi people are constructing artificial glaciers to counteract water scarcity in spring and contribute to the replenishment of underground water reservoirs |
