Tourists pray in front the snow-covered
6,740-meter-high Kagbo Peak, the highest peak of the Meili Snow Mountain,
and the Mingyong glacier below it, in Diqing Tibetan Autonomous
Prefecture, southwest China's Yunnan Province, Sept. 4, 2007. As one of
China's leading tourist landmarks, the Meili Snow Mountain will be devoid
of snow within 80 years if the global warming trends continue,
meteorological scientists have warned, saying the glaciers in the Meili
Snow Mountain have been shrinking quickly over the past 13 years. (Xinhua
