Qin Dahe, the former head of the China Meteorological Administration, said the recent fast pace of melting and warmer temperatures will be good for agriculture and tourism in the short term, but issued a strong warning: </p> <blockquote><p>Temperatures are rising four times faster than elsewhere in China, and the Tibetan glaciers are retreating at a higher speed than in any other part of the world... In the short term, this will cause lakes to expand and bring floods and mudflows... In the long run, the glaciers are vital lifelines of the Indus River. Once they vanish, water supplies in Pakistan will be in peril.<sup id="cite_ref-58" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-58"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>57<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></p></blockquote> <p>"There is insufficient data to say what will happen to the Indus," says David Grey, the World Bank's senior water advisor in South Asia. "But we all have very nasty fears that the flows of the Indus could be severely, severely affected by glacier melt as a consequence of <a href="/wiki/Climate_change" title="Climate change">climate change</a>," and reduced by perhaps as much as 50 per cent. "Now what does that mean to a population that lives in a desert [where], without the river, there would be no life? I don't know the answer to that question," he says. "But we need to be concerned about that. Deeply, deeply concerned." </p><p>U.S. diplomat <a href="/wiki/Richard_Holbrooke" title="Richard Holbrooke">Richard Holbrooke</a> said, shortly before he died in 2010, that he believed that falling water levels in the Indus River "could very well precipitate World War III."<sup id="cite_ref-59" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-59"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>58<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Pollution">Pollution</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Indus_River&amp;action=edit&amp;section=15" title="Edit section: Pollution"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Over the years factories on the banks of the Indus River have increased levels of water pollution in the river and the atmosphere around it.

It is bounded by the Uygur Autonomous Region of Xinjiang to the northeast and the Tibet Autonomous Region to the east (both parts of China), by the Indian states of Himachal Pradesh and Punjab to the south, by Pakistan to the west, and by Afghanistan to the northwest. The northern and western portions are administered by Pakistan and comprise three areas: Azad Kashmir, Gilgit, and Baltistan, ... The southern and southeastern portions constitute the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. The Indian- and Pakistani-administered portions are divided by a "line of control" agreed to in 1972, although neither country recognizes it as an international boundary. In addition, China became active in the eastern area of Kashmir in the 1950s and since 1962 has controlled the northeastern part of Ladakh (the easternmost portion of the region)."</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-3"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-3">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFAhmadZhangTayyabAnjum2018" class="citation journal cs1">Ahmad, Ijaz; Zhang, Fan; Tayyab, Muhammad; Anjum, Muhammad Naveed; Zaman, Muhammad; Liu, Junguo; Farid, Hafiz Umar; Saddique, Qaisar (15 November 2018). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0169809517312796">"Spatiotemporal analysis of precipitation variability in annual, seasonal and extreme values over upper Indus River basin"</a>. <i>Atmospheric Research</i>. <b>213</b>: 346–60. <a href="/wiki/Bibcode_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Bibcode (identifier)">Bibcode</a>:<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2018AtmRe.213..346A">2018AtmRe.213..346A</a>. <a href="/wiki/Doi_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doi (identifier)">doi</a>:<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.1016%2Fj.atmosres.2018.06.019">10.1016/j.atmosres.2018.06.019</a>. <a href="/wiki/ISSN_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="ISSN (identifier)">ISSN</a>&#160;<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://search.worldcat.org/issn/0169-8095">0169-8095</a>. <a href="/wiki/S2CID_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="S2CID (identifier)">S2CID</a>&#160;<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://api.semanticscholar.org/CorpusID:125980503">125980503</a>.</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Atmospheric+Research&amp;rft.atitle=Spatiotemporal+analysis+of+precipitation+variability+in+annual%2C+seasonal+and+extreme+values+over+upper+Indus+River+basin&amp;rft.volume=213&amp;rft.pages=346-60&amp;rft.date=2018-11-15&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.1016%2Fj.atmosres.2018.06.019&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.semanticscholar.org%2FCorpusID%3A125980503%23id-name%3DS2CID&amp;rft.issn=0169-8095&amp;rft_id=info%3Abibcode%2F2018AtmRe.213..346A&amp;rft.aulast=Ahmad&amp;rft.aufirst=Ijaz&amp;rft.au=Zhang%2C+Fan&amp;rft.au=Tayyab%2C+Muhammad&amp;rft.au=Anjum%2C+Muhammad+Naveed&amp;rft.au=Zaman%2C+Muhammad&amp;rft.au=Liu%2C+Junguo&amp;rft.au=Farid%2C+Hafiz+Umar&amp;rft.au=Saddique%2C+Qaisar&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sciencedirect.com%2Fscience%2Farticle%2Fpii%2FS0169809517312796&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AIndus+River" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-britannica-11-24-Indus-delta-lead-4"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-britannica-11-24-Indus-delta-lead_4-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-britannica-11-24-Indus-delta-lead_4-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFLodrickAhmad2024" class="citation encyclopaedia cs1">Lodrick, Deryck; Ahmad, Nafis (12 November 2024). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.britannica.com/place/Indus-River"><i>Indus River</i></a>.
