The opportunities available for rural households in the Himalayan region to cope with changing climate should involve acting in shorter timescales with development agenda of the region. The present article is an attempt to propose pathways of using available climate information to solve local problems caused by climate change. Existing information systems and databases can be organized to understand the solutions of climate change which can be appropriately implemented in highland areas. The study suggests systematically capitalizing the existing indigenous wisdom, current climate variability databases and growing information technology to help highland people cope under the local climatic constraints.
