SHORT PAPERIn this short paper, I intend to look at one article from week 2 to week 5 and
summarise its strengths and weaknesses, look into how other authors are trying
to critically engage with the same topic, how they agree or disagree with it and
then conclude with a conclusion. The main article by Gleick (2014) talks about
water, drought and climate change in Syria. He says the political, religious, and
social ideals that have persisted for a long time, as well as economic disruptions
are some of the causes of the Syrian crisis that began in 2012.
Climatic factors are lowering in addition to local, national, and international
factors. According to this research, key environmental problems include both
the immediate and long-term implications of water scarcity, ineffective
watershed management, and the impacts of climatic variability and change on
local hydrology. More than a million people experienced food insecurity, there
was an increase in unemployment, and all of these factors had an impact on
political stability according to the article. The severe multiyear drought that
started in the middle of the 2000s was compounded by ineffective and
frequently out-of-date irrigation systems and water abstractions by other parties
in the eastern Mediterranean, including Syria in particular. There is some
evidence that the present drought is a precursor to the anticipated climatic
changes in the region, which include an increase in temperature, a decrease in
basin rainfall and runoff, and a rise in water scarcity (Gleick, 2014)
If nothing is done to address population growth rates, it is anticipated that
these water-related challenges would result in even greater risks of local and
regional political instability until further strategies for reducing water insecurity
can be devised and implemented. The region may see an increase in the
significance of new dam construction, rising water demands, and limited
political collaboration on water concerns in the next years. However, among the
most significant options available to policymakers are increases in agricultural
production and water use efficiency, better groundwater resource management
and monitoring, and extensive international agreements on managing and
sharing rivers that cross political borders. Gleick (2014) also mentions that as a
result of climate change, food and water scarcity will be at a rise, will also give
birth to diseases and also mass migration of people will be increased. He has
also stressed on the point of how the water problems and climate change made
