Climate change is one of the greatest environmental, social and economic threats facing the planet today... and a new threat to Middle East security |
 |
With the Middle East being the worlds most water-stressed region, climate change, which is projected to cause sea level rise, more extreme weather events, such as droughts and floods, and less precipitation, will contribute to even greater water stress in the region.
Governments, policy makers and the general public, through the media, must realize that the climate crisis is therefore a new and real threat to the Middle East with severe environmental, economic, political and security implications.
