Chapter II:
Climate resilience.
A GLOF guide.

在北京演播廳聚光燈下的掌聲中，隨「中國天氣」官方平台的十佳作品展播，作品《冰川會逃跑》榮獲全國「十佳小小天氣預報員」最高榮譽。然而大自然從不為人類的獎杯停下腳步：不久後喜馬拉雅山區傳來冰湖潰決（GLOF）引發山洪泥石流的災情。墨兒在繪本裡畫下純真發問的幽藍冰洞，在極端氣候暖化下正成為高山村莊的緊急威脅。這促使墨兒與母親 Shirley 將項目從賽事榮譽延伸為切實的氣候行動——為高原高山社區與家庭編寫 GLOF 防災避險手冊。

The applause under the studio lights in Beijing and the national showcase on the official "China Weather" platform marked a glowing milestone for Glaciers on the Run, winning the top national honor of "Top Ten Young Weather Forecasters." However, nature does not pause for human trophies. Shortly after, tragic news arrived from the Himalayas: a Glacial Lake Outburst Flood (GLOF) triggered devastating torrents downstream. The blue ice caves that once sparked childlike wonder in Moore's sketchbook turned into an urgent threat to mountain villages under extreme warming. This compelled Moore Hou and her mother Shirley to evolve their project beyond competition honors into real-world climate action—developing a GLOF hazard mitigation and evacuation protocol for high-altitude communities.

從好奇到倡議

「看到泥石流沖毀山谷村莊的新聞照片，我心裡很難過。以前我覺得藍冰洞像藍寶石一樣美，現在我知道冰川融化得太快，堰塞湖會滿出來沖向村莊。我想畫一本小朋友也能看懂的手冊，告訴大家下大雨後聽到山谷傳出轟隆隆的聲音，就要趕快往高處跑！」—— 墨兒（小小大自然觀察員）

"When I saw news photos of mudslides destroying mountain villages, I felt deeply saddened. I used to think blue ice caves were just beautiful like sapphires, but now I know that when glaciers melt too fast, they can overflow and flood homes downstream. I want to draw a handbook that even young children can easily read, telling everyone to listen for mountain roars after heavy rain and run up to high ground!" — Moore (Young Nature Observer)
