美联社图片:一连串的灾难将尼泊尔山谷的居民推向了悬崖边缘

  

  

  梅拉姆奇,尼泊尔(美联社)——在喜马拉雅山高耸的山脉之间,梅拉姆奇镇对极端天气并不陌生,它的景观承受着多年洪水和山体滑坡的伤痕。

  这里距加德满都仅50公里(31英里),郁郁葱葱的山坡上点缀着山体滑坡和瓦砾。在废墟中,人们生活和工作,孩子们玩耍。

  该地区24岁的居民Saroj Lamichane说,他仍然记得“洪水发出的可怕声音”。Lamichane当晚逃走了,回来时只能捡到夹在巨石和破碎的墙壁之间的东西。

  Melamchi的许多房屋都用高跷支撑,以避免最严重的洪水。尽管如此,地板上还是覆盖着一层松散的岩石。窗户从墙上被扯下来了。2015年尼泊尔发生毁灭性地震后,一些建筑物仍然倾斜。

  农场也未能幸免。

  50岁的Sukuram Tamang在2021年的洪水中失去了他的土地和田地,他的家在今年的山体滑坡中被毁。当美联社记者访问时,塔曼抱着他的一只山羊站在那里——这是在梅拉姆奇不断的极端天气中幸存下来的几只山羊。

  塔曼的妻子玛雅说:“今年早些时候,就连剩下的一点也被洪水冲走了。”“过去,这条河离我们家只有20分钟的步行路程,但在洪水期间,我们震惊地看到河水泛滥,冲走了我们的一切。”

  另一位50岁的农民西塔·潘迪特(Sita Pandit)贷款重建了在地震中被毁的房屋。但在建筑完工一年后,她的新家被2021年的洪水冲走了。岩石和碎片现在覆盖了她的农场。

  总部位于加德满都的国际山地综合发展中心在2021年的一份报告中发现,级联灾害在尼泊尔和兴都库什-喜马拉雅山脉变得越来越普遍。

  气温上升导致冰川大量融化,冰川湖泊泛滥。2021年报告的作者之一苏丹·比卡什·马哈詹(Sudan Bikash Maharjan)表示,它们还会导致降雨模式的变化,从而将大量沉积物带到下游。

  马哈詹说,地方和联邦政府需要做好更好的准备,给人们撤离的时间。

  在那之前,许多人都在努力重建他们过去的生活。人们在废墟中重建家园,或者完全新建家园。他们在房屋和家具的碎片中行走和生活。一层层的泥土掩盖了他们曾经的生活。
