  Protection of environment is a moral responsibility of each and every inhabitant of this world. It therefore goes without saying that the ecology of the Tibetan plateau, situated at the heart of Asia and often referred to as the roof of the world, should be of utmost importance. The Tibetan Plateau is the principal watershed of Asia. As many as 10 major rivers originate in Tibet. These rivers feed millions of people downstream east and south Asia. It is estimated that about 85% of Asia’s population, or 47% of the world population, feeds on the rivers from Tibet. Any disruption of the fragile ecology of the Tibetan plateau is therefore bound to have global consequences. As an indication of a chain-reaction of damage from global warming, the environmental groups warn that the accelerated glacier melting in the mountains of Tibet could choke off water sources vital for large parts of South Asian countries. One forecast warns that 80 percent of the glacial area in Tibet could disappear by 2035. The ecology of Tibet has remained intact for centuries. From the ancient Choegyal Emperors to the institution of Dalai Lama, the rulers of Tibet have consistently passed stringent decrees on the protection of Tibet’s environment and wildlife, which were observed by the general Tibetan populace. The wanton large-scale destruction of Tibet’s environment began only after China occupied Tibet in 1950. Because of excessive exploitation of natural resources of Tibet, particularly indiscriminate logging of the virgin forests, extensive mining activities, damming of rivers, and dumping of nuclear waste in Tibet, the environment of Tibet is today in a crisis situation.
