Israel Palestine Conflict and Its Impact on Climate Change in the Middle East

Abstract

The Israel-Palestine war, one of the longest-standing disputes in contemporary history, extends past political and territorial dimensions to seriously affect the surroundings and weather resilience of the Middle East. This location, already liable to climate alternate, faces exacerbated challenges inclusive of rising temperatures, extended droughts, and water scarcity, all intensified by way of the ongoing conflict. Crucial to this problem is the control of water assets, in particular shared resources just like the Jordan River and the Mountain Aquifer, which might be beneath Israeli manage. Palestinians face excessive regulations on access to smooth water, resulting in acute shortages, terrible sanitation, and confined agricultural productiveness. The environmental degradation due to army operations, agreement expansion, and infrastructure development in addition damages important ecosystems, agricultural lands, and water quality. As an instance, army sports contribute to deforestation, soil erosion, and water contamination, at the same time as the development of settlements reduces arable land and disrupts ecological balance
