The idyllic region of Tibet, known as the roof of the world, is suffering the most from global warming, experts said.

The China Meteorological Administration (CMA) said the temperature in Tibet increased 0.32C every ten years from the year 1961 to 2008.

This was up to six times the temperature increase in other Chinese regions, which was 0.05-0.08C per decade.
