In Peru, Sky News has been told that the country is on the ‘edge of disaster’, with a deepening water crisis to which there is no plan.

More than 70% of the world’s tropical glaciers exist in Peru, providing vital water for farming and drinking for millions across the north of the country.

But they are receding at rapid pace.

Sky’s Chief Correspondent Stuart Ramsay reports from the Yanapaccha glacier in Peru’s Cordillera Blanca mountains.
