‘We are responsible for natural disasters and we need to take action.’
Only a few years ago, Anurag Maloo faced death on one of the world’s most dangerous mountains.
In 2023, he was abseiling down Annapurna when he slipped due to a rope failure and fell into a crevasse. Maloo was trapped for three days before a rescue team found him unconscious. After doctors performed CPR for four hours, the mountaineer faced a long period of rehab in which he lost the fingers on his right hand and had to relearn how to stand and walk.
Despite his near-death experience, Maloo, founder of The Voice Of Glaciers Foundation, has dedicated his life to educating the world about how we all depend on mountains and nature.
