Here is a clip of Claude telling Sen. Bernie Sanders that AI has power "in ways most Americans don't fully grasp"

Nepal Floods. In 2011, I warned that this would happen. I got the European Parliament to pass my Report. Nothing happened. It gathered dust in the Commission and Council. I sent it to the Nepalese Cabinet. Met with the then PM. Nothing happened. Now we are sorry. Ha !! Nirj Deva , a former UK MEP (ECR group), was the rapporteur for the European Parliament’s own-initiative report Financing of reinforcement of dam infrastructure in developing countries (procedure 2010/2270(INI); final committee report A7-0213/2011).a5c822 europarl.europa This is the document that addresses glaciers in the Himalayas (specifically the Hindu Kush-Himalayan region) and related flood risks. It is not a standalone scientific study on glaciers but a development policy report focused on flood prevention through improved dam and water infrastructure in developing countries, with strong emphasis on glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) driven by glacier retreat. Key context and content Debate and presentation (26 September 2011, Strasbourg): Deva explicitly framed the report around preventing deaths from floods caused by glacier retreat in the Hindu Kush-Himalayan range (and the Andes). He described flying over the region near Everest base camp, seeing dangerous glacial lakes, and consulting ICIMOD (International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development). ICIMOD had identified ~8,000 glacial lakes in the Hindu Kush-Himalayas, of which 203 were classified as extremely dangerous.27b676 europarl.europa Accelerated glacier melting was causing lakes to expand and burst, producing flash floods. He referenced the recent Pakistan floods that affected ~20 million people and noted that traditional seasonal water release patterns on major rivers (Ganges and others feeding billions of people) were becoming unpredictable. Proposed mitigations included controlled lowering of glacial lake levels via siphons, open channels, and tunnels (rather than attempting to repair natural moraine dams), so the water could be managed as a reservoir resource downstream. The Commission response in the debate acknowledged glacier melting in the Himalaya and related GLOFs as a growing problem requiring specific attention. The European Parliament resolution (adopted 27 September 2011 as P7_TA(2011)0409) call for: Greater EU support for reinforcing existing dam and water infrastructure (and related early-warning/flood-prevention measures) in vulnerable developing countries, especially least-developed countries. Attention to GLOFs and glacial melt risks in mountainous regions. Prioritising optimisation of existing infrastructure, climate-resilient approaches, and multilateral cooperation given the trans-boundary nature of many Himalayan rivers and lakes (spanning Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, Nepal, and Pakistan). Amendments tabled by Deva (visible in parliamentary tracking) specifically highlighted acceleration of glacial melting in the Himalayas and Andes, rapid expansion of glacial lakes, the limited historical data on GLOFs, and the need for cross-border data-sharing and a possible UN-auspices agency for trans-boundary water hazards.bc9e6b Parltrack Official sources Committee draft/report and final A7-0213/2011 documents are available via the European Parliament’s document service (search for procedure 2010/2270(INI) or A7-0213/2011). Verbatim debate: europarl.europa.eu/doceo/doc… Procedure tracking and amendments: parltrack.org or the official EP Legislative Observatory (OEIL) under 2010/2270(INI). Adopted resolution: P7_TA(2011)0409. No evidence appears of a separate, dedicated “Nirj Deva Report” solely on Himalayan glaciers; the dam-infrastructure report and Deva’s accompanying speeches/amendments are the matching source. The issues it raised (GLOF risk from retreating glaciers, need for monitoring, controlled drainage, and resilient infrastructure) remain highly relevant to ongoing Himalayan flood and water-security discussions.
