内容摘要：ALEJANDRO: I always liked the classic stuff, and being really elegant, since I was a kid. I always like to be in a suit and tie. I found excuses to be really dressed up. And I think this character borrows that from Rauw Alejandro. I’m 31. I feel like a young spirt with an old soul, living in New York, the city’s vibes, the musical influence of the ‘60s, the long coats ... the swag of Puerto Rico. I can’t deny it. I think the way that you dress is the way you express yourself and your art.

(AP Photo/Mukhtar Khan)As this region in Asia is particularly vulnerable to climate change, shifting weather patterns have already altered people’s lives through floods, landslides and droughts in Ladakh, an inhospitable yet pristine landscape of high mountain passes and vast river valleys that in the past was an important part of the famed Silk Road trade route.

Frequent loss of livestock due to diseases, lack of health care, border conflict and shrinking grazing land — worsened by extreme climatic changes — has forced hundreds to migrate from sparsely populated villages to mainly urban clusters in the region known for its sublime mountain landscape and the expensive wool.In the remote Himalayan region, glaciers are melting fast while still villagers largely depend on glacial runoff for water.Dorjey, the nomad-turned-cabbie, has seen it all.
