Climate change is usually associated with hotter weather, but
experts say that in Mongolia it's making the country's cold snaps
even harsher. Can Mongolian nomads survive much longer in extreme
winter conditions known as "dzuds"? Or will the loss of their
livestock and livelihoods force herders to abandon a way of life
that dates back millennia?


Graihagh Jackson finds out more about the situation on the ground
from Mongolian reporter Khaliun Bayartsogt, and explores possible
solutions with Khulan Dashpuntsag from the UN-funded ADAPT
project.
