I farm in Canada. I grow vegetables and sweet corn. My family has farmed here for 90 years. For the first time I picked sweet corn in November. In our family history of 90 years this has never happened before. This means climate change is real. God help us. God bless praying for these farmers. Amen
No one denies climate change. It’s happened ever since the planet was formed. God folk are thick. Doesn’t prove it’s man made. One or two years of weather is not necessarily a trend.
Such a nice directorial choice to have the interviewees speak directly into the camera, as if they're talking directly to us. What an amazingly produced documentary.
Embellished to say the least. Embellished to push the climate change agenda. Highest ever recorded temperature in bassra is 53.8, less in Baghdad where the police officer claims it was 60 degrees. The planet has got hotter and cooled down for hundreds of thousands of years and when you look at history in 500 year sections it’s quite normal. The water level used to raise up to the banks, shows a banking at one side of the river, then pans to the other where it clearly was never possible to be so high. I’m off back to pornhub, enough bs for today
CO2 at 0.04% is a 2,500th part of the atmosphere. That means to warm the climate by just 1"C carbon dioxide molecules must capture 2,500"C of heat energy. That is impossible. It also breaks the fundamental laws of thermodynamics. Methane at 0.00017% is a 600,000th of the atmosphere so it's even more impossible. However, the climate is changing. This is because of deliberate geoengineering programmes, in particular ozone thinning away from the poles. Though largely unreported ozone thinning effect is directly observable, in clear skies producing an unnaturally bright sun. Under these conditions the pain felt when looking at the sun is not only from the increase in visible light but the much larger increase in infrared. (Look up at the sky and you will see a range of geoengineering operations in progress, these include chemtrail induced cloud or hazing, ripple patterns caused by HAARP installations, bizarre and unnatural cloud formations). Climate change is a programme to force change in accordance with the implementation of Agenda 21 /2030. Current events demonstrate this transition is well underway and will involve massive population cull through injected nanotech (re transhumanist programme). Agenda 21 also sees the permanent loss of all property rights with the introduction of universal basic income (ref NESARA/GESARA) and has/is being promoted by The World Economic Forum. 'You will own nothing and you will be happy' WEF In a depopulated world the surviving brainwashed and controlled population will be confined to mega cities. Carbon limits will be used to restrict consumption and liberty. Meanwhile the re-greened wilderness will be the exclusive playground of the ultra rich elite posing as conservationists. The CO2 hoax amounts to the theft of the world and the enslavement of humanity by a parasitic few. Welcome to the future! _________ I have included a debunking of 'accumulated heat' as it is so often used to explain how trace elements, so called 'greenhouse gasses', can warm the planet. Accumulated heat whilst sounding a reasonable explanation of how heat can build up is rather nothing more than gobbledygook. In fact it shows those using such arguments do not even understand what heat is. When we measure temperature we are measuring the heat energy a thing is losing. In short heat is a measurement of flow, the transfer of heat energy and this will always be in the direction towards the colder. For this reason a thing can never 'accumulate heat' in the way those advocating CO2 climate change describe. The temperature of a body is the measure of heat output, it can never be greater than the measure of heat input. Output = input. When a thing is warmed it is heated to an equivalent of the heat input. If this input is not maintained it will cool. Those that propose that heat can build up to be hotter than the total measure of heat input at a given time either do not understand what heat is or are being deliberately misleading. To illustrate, an object being heated by a flame can never become hotter than that flame, it's temperature cannot rise inexorably to the temperature of the sun for instance. Heat cannot be accumulated. When we think about it common sense tells us this must be the case. NASA and even Nobel Prize winning physicists have expounded 'accumulated heat' as the explanation how CO2 is able to warm the atmosphere. They claim that over hundreds of years CO2 has captured heat energy and this heat has 'accumulated' to produce a serious warming effect. As I have just explained, this is totally impossible and fundamentally violates all the laws of thermodynamics. That respected scientists should support such uneducated, unthinking nonsense is disturbing and only reflects that in terms of being able to think clearly about a subject they have no facility or inclination. These are the Dark Ages of science. Belief has outweighed logic or any critical thought. It tells us that we should not unquestioningly accept anything we are told, that experts can be fools. (NB: be aware of attempts to discard thermodynamics by talking about biology. Eg. 'It only takes a drop of arsenic to kill a person.' This would be somewhat desperate, muddled thinking. Clearly biological processes based on the reaction of a cell are not the same as the laws of physics/thermodynamics).

It is a well established fact that the chain of events from most of Syrias farmlands and cattle being destroyed, to the cities becoming overpopulated with poor farmers, to ISIS finding a good foothold, is a reason for the Kalifate being created, with numerous fatalities resulting from the fighting that ensued. Climate change is causing real, day to day trouble for a lot of people. It should be taken seriously, and not pushed over to some alternate path that tries to indicate that he problem is elsewhere at every turn.

Iraq and the Iraqi people deserve much better than they have. Instead, countries like mine only see what countries like Iraq can offer in terms of a quantifiable resource. And that same resource is leading to the downfall of not just our species and civilization, but the global climate itself.

@@CantHandleThisCanYa Iraq was considered as one of the most rich countries of water 😂 Iraq has tens of rivers! Iraq is famous with his big rivers, the problem now is that Turkey and Iran are cutting off the water of rivers from Iraq such as the Tigris River, Euphrates, Upper Zab, Lower Zab, Diyala, Sirwan, Ab Sirwan, Tanjru, Al-Azim, Al-Karon and other rivers. Iraq contains a vast desert, but not all of its territory is desert, even the Greeks and Arabs today call Iraq Mesopotamia, it means the land between rivers! Read a little before you put forward your incorrect opinions Iraq contains the largest Marshes and freshwater swamps in the Middle East in the south and is one of the largest in the world and contains many giant freshwater lakes such as Lake Al-Tharthar, Habbaniyah, Razza, Sawa, Dokan, Darbandkhan and other very large freshwater lakes!
This report could also talk about the Iranian regime and Turkey's diversion and theft of the waters of the Euphrates and Tigris rivers.Through the building of dams and obscuring the natural directions of water flow. Also please shine some light on Iranian regime backed politicians and ministers in Iraq who are corrupted.
@@dochedgehog No, its not a political agenda. Climate change has an obvious role in this, the weather is hotter, but the water shortage is caused PRIMARILY by Turkey and Iran, Turkey daming the hell out of those rivers for their own benifit and strangling iraq, causing resource issues but also hygene issues.

@@bloodfiredrake7259 Think it was a reason for it though. I dont think nukes was the reason (But certain the excuse to invade). But basically USA was allied with Iraq during 1980s, because of fear of revolution in same way Iran had in 1979, so they aided Saddam Hussein with weapons.... well until he invaded Kuwait "Some argue it was to remove debts from war with Iran". But basically this is when USA and Iraq didnt see eye to eye anymore. I honestly think they simply went to war because of that threat probably. Afghanistan was another issue due to training jihadists (which ironically was a culture that USA created to fight communists) interms of political jihad. This is not to say Islamism hasnt existed before that. But it overall would bite them in the ass is all. But chaos of war of ideas is a interesting thing
Peace… The major reason for the problem with water in Iraq and the Tigris river flow slowing down has to do with the Turkish Government and the dam; another reason is the infrastructure in Syria that the waterways lose much of the water before it gets to Iraq… A massive hydroelectric plant and impoundment dam located in Turkey's Southeastern region. The waters that will soon back up behind the Ilisu Dam and will transform nearly 90 miles of the Tigris and another 150 miles of its tributaries into a vast reservoir that will submerge nearly 200 villages and displace an estimated 80,000 people. One of the biggest of the project’s 22 dams and 19 power plants. Most of the other hydropower projects have already been built on Turkish rivers, including up and down the storied Euphrates River, which flows roughly parallel to the Tigris before joining it north of Basra, Iraq to form the Shatt Al-Arab River. Turkey, Syria and Iraq depend on the Tigris-Euphrates river system for their food and water security. The headwaters of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers are located in Turkey and join in southern Iraq to form the Shatt al-Arab River before flowing into the Persian Gulf. The Euphrates begins in the eastern Turkish highlands and flows into Syria where it is joined by two other tributaries that also originate in Turkey. About 90 per cent of the water flowing in the Euphrates comes from Turkey, most of the remaining ten per cent originates in Syria and a very limited amount is added in Iraq. Turkey reportedly utilises about 41 per cent of the water resources in its territory, allowing the rest to flow downstream to Syria, which loses 60 percent of its water resources to leaky infrastructure. By the time the rivers reach Iraq a large portion of the water has been consumed. The two lower riparians claim that Turkey uses too much of the region’s water, however, their management of water resources is hardly exemplary.

We are overwhelmed by the idea of progress. The attempt to build a modern world destroyed many precious things and left many people behind in a process. It is sad that the current paradigm that is used to fight climate change by UN and world leaders emphasizes jargon like AI and machine learning without really realizing what we have to traded off in order to build paradise modern world. Technology and progress should make people happier, I highly doubt that it would be the case.
It's more appealing to industry. Tech bleeds electricity, so demand for it skyrockets, which leads to short term solutions (more electric dams and power plants). One messes with the water's cycle and biosphere, the other with quality of the surrounding environment.
It seems like it's only about diesel and petrol cars. It's far more than this. All the cities covered in concrete and tarmac literally everything absorbing the heat. Trees are the reason we have the rain on continents. Why no one talks about growing more trees? I remember the roads were like tree alleys providing shade, shelter for wildlife, stopping soil erosion...
Both Turkey and Iran have built dams on the sources of Tigris river which is the untold story behind this documentary. So it's not a direct effect of climate change on the farmers
How do people in the Middle East survive with temperatures reaching 50% Celsius and above?, in one of these years in my country South Africa in the region where I live it hit 45% Celsius and about 10 people died of heat stroke, that was the first and the last time temperatures reached 40% and above. Lastly, why you need a traffic police when you can install a traffic light.

The country must invest heavily in desalination, water recycling, solar farms and other renewable energy projects, and growing drought tolerant crops. There is no single solution to managing and adapting to the climate crisis. Solar panels could save farmers by providing shade to their livestock and allow for growing many crops while leasing their fields to solar energy companies, profit sharing in lieu of a lease, or selling the solar generated electricity to the grid. The third option would require massive investment by the farmer, which in most cases is not a viable option. With abandoned farmland so inexpensive, renewable energy companies could simply buy land rather than leasing or profit sharing. To ensure farmer survival, the state must find a way of saving farmers by preventing abandoned farmland from being sold off and turned into solar farms. Once investments in desalination and water recycling begin to deliver water for irrigation its vital there is farmland available to begin growing crops and raising livestock again. Often times we look for the simplest and/or least costly method or option in order to meet demand. Doing so does not take into account future needs. Meaning if all of the farmland is sold off for other uses, it won't be available in the future. This pandemic has shown us, once again, the importance of having the capacity to meet basic needs within our own borders. Raising livestock and growing staple crops in vital for a nation to survive when faced with import supply disruptions. Iraq has suffered a lot. Let's not forget that suffering by taking measures to meet today's demand without thinking ahead. If ever war is brought to Iraq or imports cease, the nation must be able to feeds its citizens. The time to act was in 1990. If action is not taken now, much of the country will be swallowed by the desert. The retreating masses will flood into the already crowded cities. Or, worse yet, flee the country. Desalination and water recycling provides the opportunity to build man-made lakes and reservoirs. These lakes and reservoirs will naturally cool the surrounding area. This is amplified with new vegetation and trees this water will nurture. Desertification can be reversed. Once barron land becomes an oasis for all to enjoy. Small man-made lakes would provide the state with revenue to invest in further water projects by selling the reclaimed desert turned into beautiful lake front land for the development of environmentally responsible estates. All of these projects will require massive investment. Investment the state cannot afford and must seek foreign investment to fund. The plan is not to build another Dubai..... the plan is simply to reverse the affects of the climate crisis for the beautiful Iraqi people. The country is growing rapidly. The growth rate of the population is far exceeding the states ability to provide basic needs of domestically grown food, water, sewage, and electricity. Cheers!
You're right. Unfortunately most countries are short sighted & only look as far as life time. It makes it that much harder when there's decades political/religious unrest.

In fact, this report was prepared in the summer when Turkey and Iran cut off the waters destined for Iraq, but in the time of autumn and winter, especially spring as we are now, Iran and Turkey are forced to open river water due to floods, this week floods and rains hit many Iraqi cities and the levels of river water, especially the Tigris and Euphrates, rose to the point of flooding! Floods peak in spring when Iraq is filled with water coming due to melting snow in the Iranian and Turkish mountains
Dang, I thought it was always dry and hot there lol. I guess things can always get worse. It's getting worse all over the world. South America is being hit hard with drought. I wish the people in charge would wake up and do something about it but they're too greedy.
My heart is with Iraqi people, I really hope that the desalination systems will be fully; operational. In the UAE water is available everywhere thanks to that. They can also afford some cloud seeding techniques to create rain clouds through condensation. With the current events in Iraq we just wish for a better governance and unity to reorganise the country.
i thought they were just redirecting the water by the big players. its hot all the time its the dessert... getting off the plane is like getting a hot blow dryer in your face. and they dont use deodorant
Pretty soon if we do not change our way of life, the whole world will be like this, overpopulation, scarce resources, toxic air, no water, ultimately conflicts.
I farm in Canada. I grow vegetables and sweet corn. My family has farmed here for 90 years. For the first time I picked sweet corn in November. In our family history of 90 years this has never happened before. This means climate change is real. God help us. God bless praying for these farmers. Amen
I really want to immigrate to Canada and farm. With climate change I believe Canada and Russia is the best countries to go to.

Embellished to say the least. Embellished to push the climate change agenda. Highest ever recorded temperature in bassra is 53.8, less in Baghdad where the police officer claims it was 60 degrees. The planet has got hotter and cooled down for hundreds of thousands of years and when you look at history in 500 year sections it’s quite normal. The water level used to raise up to the banks, shows a banking at one side of the river, then pans to the other where it clearly was never possible to be so high. I’m off back to pornhub, enough bs for today
This needs to be 2 hours long. Amazing production.
CO2 at 0.04% is a 2,500th part of the atmosphere. That means to warm the climate by just 1"C carbon dioxide molecules must capture 2,500"C of heat energy. That is impossible. It also breaks the fundamental laws of thermodynamics.
Methane at 0.00017% is a 600,000th of the atmosphere so it's even more impossible.
However, the climate is changing. This is because of deliberate geoengineering programmes, in particular ozone thinning away from the poles. Though largely unreported ozone thinning effect is directly observable, in clear skies producing an unnaturally bright sun. Under these conditions the pain felt when looking at the sun is not only from the increase in visible light but the much larger increase in infrared. (Look up at the sky and you will see a range of geoengineering operations in progress, these include chemtrail induced cloud or hazing, ripple patterns caused by HAARP installations, bizarre and unnatural cloud formations).
Climate change is a programme to force change in accordance with the implementation of Agenda 21 /2030. Current events demonstrate this transition is well underway and will involve massive population cull through injected nanotech (re transhumanist programme). Agenda 21 also sees the permanent loss of all property rights with the introduction of universal basic income (ref NESARA/GESARA) and has/is being promoted by The World Economic Forum.

In a depopulated world the surviving brainwashed and controlled population will be confined to mega cities. Carbon limits will be used to restrict consumption and liberty. Meanwhile the re-greened wilderness will be the exclusive playground of the ultra rich elite posing as conservationists.

I have included a debunking of 'accumulated heat' as it is so often used to explain how trace elements, so called 'greenhouse gasses', can warm the planet.
Accumulated heat whilst sounding a reasonable explanation of how heat can build up is rather nothing more than gobbledygook. In fact it shows those using such arguments do not even understand what heat is.
When we measure temperature we are measuring the heat energy a thing is losing. In short heat is a measurement of flow, the transfer of heat energy and this will always be in the direction towards the colder. For this reason a thing can never 'accumulate heat' in the way those advocating CO2 climate change describe. The temperature of a body is the measure of heat output, it can never be greater than the measure of heat input. Output = input. When a thing is warmed it is heated to an equivalent of the heat input. If this input is not maintained it will cool. Those that propose that heat can build up to be hotter than the total measure of heat input at a given time either do not understand what heat is or are being deliberately misleading. To illustrate, an object being heated by a flame can never become hotter than that flame, it's temperature cannot rise inexorably to the temperature of the sun for instance. Heat cannot be accumulated. When we think about it common sense tells us this must be the case.
NASA and even Nobel Prize winning physicists have expounded 'accumulated heat' as the explanation how CO2 is able to warm the atmosphere. They claim that over hundreds of years CO2 has captured heat energy and this heat has 'accumulated' to produce a serious warming effect. As I have just explained, this is totally impossible and fundamentally violates all the laws of thermodynamics. That respected scientists should support such uneducated, unthinking nonsense is disturbing and only reflects that in terms of being able to think clearly about a subject they have no facility or inclination. These are the Dark Ages of science. Belief has outweighed logic or any critical thought. It tells us that we should not unquestioningly accept anything we are told, that experts can be fools.
(NB: be aware of attempts to discard thermodynamics by talking about biology.
Eg. 'It only takes a drop of arsenic to kill a person.'
This would be somewhat desperate, muddled thinking. Clearly biological processes based on the reaction of a cell are not the same as the laws of physics/thermodynamics).

How bout the fact that turkey is building too many dams on the upper euphrates and tigris river?
Whataboutism will not solve many problems. Sure, that is also a problem, but it should not diminish what is presented in this video. Climate change hits hard for many.
It is a well established fact that the chain of events from most of Syrias farmlands and cattle being destroyed, to the cities becoming overpopulated with poor farmers, to ISIS finding a good foothold, is a reason for the Kalifate being created, with numerous fatalities resulting from the fighting that ensued. Climate change is causing real, day to day trouble for a lot of people. It should be taken seriously, and not pushed over to some alternate path that tries to indicate that he problem is elsewhere at every turn. That rain is not falling is a real issue for the millions that depend on it.

Iraq and the Iraqi people deserve much better than they have. Instead, countries like mine only see what countries like Iraq can offer in terms of a quantifiable resource. And that same resource is leading to the downfall of not just our species and civilization, but the global climate itself.
There is a saying that my Mother's ancestors had: "It is only when the last tree is cut down, the last fish is taken from the river, and the river is poisoned so that we cannot drink we realize we cannot eat money."

@@CantHandleThisCanYa Iraq was considered as one of the most rich countries of water 😂 Iraq has tens of rivers! Iraq is famous with his big rivers, the problem now is that Turkey and Iran are cutting off the water of rivers from Iraq such as the Tigris River, Euphrates, Upper Zab, Lower Zab, Diyala, Sirwan, Ab Sirwan, Tanjru, Al-Azim, Al-Karon and other rivers. Iraq contains a vast desert, but not all of its territory is desert, even the Greeks and Arabs today call Iraq Mesopotamia, it means the land between rivers! Read a little before you put forward your incorrect opinions Iraq contains the largest Marshes and freshwater swamps in the Middle East in the south and is one of the largest in the world and contains many giant freshwater lakes such as Lake Al-Tharthar, Habbaniyah, Razza, Sawa, Dokan, Darbandkhan and other very large freshwater lakes!

@@bloodfiredrake7259 Think it was a reason for it though. I dont think nukes was the reason (But certain the excuse to invade). But basically USA was allied with Iraq during 1980s, because of fear of revolution in same way Iran had in 1979, so they aided Saddam Hussein with weapons.... well until he invaded Kuwait "Some argue it was to remove debts from war with Iran". But basically this is when USA and Iraq didnt see eye to eye anymore. I honestly think they simply went to war because of that threat probably. Afghanistan was another issue due to training jihadists (which ironically was a culture that USA created to fight communists) interms of political jihad. This is not to say Islamism hasnt existed before that. But it overall would bite them in the ass is all. But chaos of war of ideas is a interesting thing
Peace…
The major reason for the problem with water in Iraq and the Tigris river flow slowing down has to do with the Turkish Government and the dam; another reason is the infrastructure in Syria that the waterways lose much of the water before it gets to Iraq…
A massive hydroelectric plant and impoundment dam located in Turkey's Southeastern region. The waters that will soon back up behind the Ilisu Dam and will transform nearly 90 miles of the Tigris and another 150 miles of its tributaries into a vast reservoir that will submerge nearly 200 villages and displace an estimated 80,000 people.
One of the biggest of the project’s 22 dams and 19 power plants.
Most of the other hydropower projects have already been built on Turkish rivers, including up and down the storied Euphrates River, which flows roughly parallel to the Tigris before joining it north of Basra, Iraq to form the Shatt Al-Arab River.
Turkey, Syria and Iraq depend on the Tigris-Euphrates river system for their food and water security.
The headwaters of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers are located in Turkey and join in southern Iraq to form the Shatt al-Arab River before flowing into the Persian Gulf.
The Euphrates begins in the eastern Turkish highlands and flows into Syria where it is joined by two other tributaries that also originate in Turkey.
About 90 per cent of the water flowing in the Euphrates comes from Turkey, most of the remaining ten per cent originates in Syria and a very limited amount is added in Iraq.
Turkey reportedly utilises about 41 per cent of the water resources in its territory, allowing the rest to flow downstream to Syria, which loses 60 percent of its water resources to leaky infrastructure.
By the time the rivers reach Iraq a large portion of the water has been consumed.
The two lower riparians claim that Turkey uses too much of the region’s water, however, their management of water resources is hardly exemplary.

It is sad that the current paradigm that is used to fight climate change by UN and world leaders emphasizes jargon like AI and machine learning without really realizing what we have to traded off in order to build paradise modern world. Technology and progress should make people happier, I highly doubt that it would be the case.
It's more appealing to industry. Tech bleeds electricity, so demand for it skyrockets, which leads to short term solutions (more electric dams and power plants). One messes with the water's cycle and biosphere, the other with quality of the surrounding environment.
It seems like it's only about diesel and petrol cars. It's far more than this. All the cities covered in concrete and tarmac literally everything absorbing the heat. Trees are the reason we have the rain on continents. Why no one talks about growing more trees? I remember the roads were like tree alleys providing shade, shelter for wildlife, stopping soil erosion...

Uhm thats old news
You just not so well informed.
Really feel sorry for this situation
Thank you BBC for highlighting such an important issue. I am speechless!
They won't tell you this: NO TREES >>> NO RAIN
I just like how he keeps calm and makes jokes about traffic job going on in his dreams. Amazing man
Both Turkey and Iran have built dams on the sources of Tigris river which is the untold story behind this documentary. So it's not a direct effect of climate change on the farmers
And that Iraq's water infrastructure was obliterated by the west.
How do people in the Middle East survive with temperatures reaching 50% Celsius and above?, in one of these years in my country South Africa in the region where I live it hit 45% Celsius and about 10 people died of heat stroke, that was the first and the last time temperatures reached 40% and above. Lastly, why you need a traffic police when you can install a traffic light.
Because of arab clothes than sheiks wear
Btw, he meant 56 degree Celsius. Now that's real hot.
Improvise, adapt and overcome. You were the original engineers.
I hope the Mesopotamian people find a way to overcome the water issue i pray 🙏
NO TREES >>> NO RAIN
Thank you we will maybe in someday but am sure not when America and Iran still there for Iraq.. you don't know how hard to even get work in Iraq so how about building whole country
These people deal with extreme heat with such grace.
NO TREES >>> NO RAIN. Brought upon themselves
Heartbreaking on all levels.
The country must invest heavily in desalination, water recycling, solar farms and other renewable energy projects, and growing drought tolerant crops. There is no single solution to managing and adapting to the climate crisis. Solar panels could save farmers by providing shade to their livestock and allow for growing many crops while leasing their fields to solar energy companies, profit sharing in lieu of a lease, or selling the solar generated electricity to the grid. The third option would require massive investment by the farmer, which in most cases is not a viable option. With abandoned farmland so inexpensive, renewable energy companies could simply buy land rather than leasing or profit sharing. To ensure farmer survival, the state must find a way of saving farmers by preventing abandoned farmland from being sold off and turned into solar farms. Once investments in desalination and water recycling begin to deliver water for irrigation its vital there is farmland available to begin growing crops and raising livestock again. Often times we look for the simplest and/or least costly method or option in order to meet demand. Doing so does not take into account future needs. Meaning if all of the farmland is sold off for other uses, it won't be available in the future. This pandemic has shown us, once again, the importance of having the capacity to meet basic needs within our own borders. Raising livestock and growing staple crops in vital for a nation to survive when faced with import supply disruptions. Iraq has suffered a lot. Let's not forget that suffering by taking measures to meet today's demand without thinking ahead. If ever war is brought to Iraq or imports cease, the nation must be able to feeds its citizens. The time to act was in 1990. If action is not taken now, much of the country will be swallowed by the desert. The retreating masses will flood into the already crowded cities. Or, worse yet, flee the country.
Desalination and water recycling provides the opportunity to build man-made lakes and reservoirs. These lakes and reservoirs will naturally cool the surrounding area. This is amplified with new vegetation and trees this water will nurture. Desertification can be reversed. Once barron land becomes an oasis for all to enjoy. Small man-made lakes would provide the state with revenue to invest in further water projects by selling the reclaimed desert turned into beautiful lake front land for the development of environmentally responsible estates. All of these projects will require massive investment. Investment the state cannot afford and must seek foreign investment to fund. The plan is not to build another Dubai..... the plan is simply to reverse the affects of the climate crisis for the beautiful Iraqi people. The country is growing rapidly. The growth rate of the population is far exceeding the states ability to provide basic needs of domestically grown food, water, sewage, and electricity.
Cheers!
Appreciate ur long writing
You're right. Unfortunately most countries are short sighted & only look as far as life time. It makes it that much harder when there's decades political/religious unrest.
compare this to the one they did in Kuwait. You picked the right people here.

"Turkey, Syria and Iraq depend on the Tigris-Euphrates river system for their food and water security.
The headwaters of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers are located in Turkey and join in southern Iraq to form the Shatt al-Arab River before flowing into the Persian Gulf.
The Euphrates begins in the eastern Turkish highlands and flows into Syria where it is joined by two other tributaries that also originate in Turkey.
About 90 per cent of the water flowing in the Euphrates comes from Turkey, most of the remaining ten per cent originates in Syria and a very limited amount is added in Iraq.
Turkey reportedly utilises about 41 per cent of the water resources in its territory, allowing the rest to flow downstream to Syria, which loses 60 per cent of its water resources to leaky infrastructure.
By the time the rivers reach Iraq a large portion of the water has been consumed.
The two lower riparians claim that Turkey uses too much of the region’s water, however, their management of water resources is hardly exemplary."
Take care and be true to your heart

Normally air temperature is measured in a wooden box in the shade, right?
Right. The +60 reading was of surface temperature.
Last July It reached 75 degrees Celsius under direct sunlight in southern Iraq Basra city
@@aymankadhim850 that isnt how you measure the temperature.
direct sunlight isnt a measure of how warm it is, also maybe find the person who said it was fine to have roads made of BLACK tarmac.
so so stupid
@@dochedgehog I don't really care how you officially measure the heat however I was very specific and clarified it was under direct sunlight and the reason why I take this type of measurement because alot of people in iraq they actually work under direct sun lights and when I see the temperature are reaching that much it scares me. hope you understand my point now : )
Human overshoot will continue to be denied even as extinction closes in.
@anonymous one Turkey is a bigger threat to the world than North Korea for sure
The problem with the future, is that in the past, everyone was able to pack up the family and move to a better climate. Now, borders and passports will lock everyone into their own hell. Its going to be a very interesting 30 years coming.
Make it 8.
People will do the impossible for their families… refugees waves because of global warming are inescapable
thank you for this well produced piece highlighting climate issues in iraq. been following world tempereture sites online in the summer being completely baffled by the dark purple tempereture colors over iraq, cities like baghdad and especially basra. it makes every other hot spot on earth look like a joke. feel for you over there and hopefully technology and imrpoved logistics and poltics can make it more sustainable.
A very moving short documentary. We used to read from history books that Iraq used to be production house in agriculture courtesy to its beautiful flowing rivers but Alas what we humans have done to this earth .....
Iraq still has tens of rivers! My family has a lot of green lands on the Euphrates and it's still good for agriculture, the problem is that Turkey and Iran are cutting of these rivers!
@@mohammedkh4321 It's easy to blame. The problem is the humanity. Not just Turkey lol.
@@denizylmaz3363 No, sometimes it's very easy to blame the main reason and at this case Turkey and Iran are the reasons, the water come from Tigris and Euphrates from Turkey to Iraq down to less than 50% and from Iran less than 30%!
*Baghdad's population has grown from 6.5 million to 8.6 million in the last ten years*
Meanwhile in India: Are you kidding me, that's insultingly low.
That's because Iraq war by the west has lead many to from nearing cities and towns to go to the capital
India stinky 🇮🇳😂🇮🇳💩
It's Baghdad the capital of iraq not the whole country and Baghdad is small when it's comes to land area compare to others Iraqi province
@@Zipzeboo Bagdad is the largest and main city in Iraq
@@Zipzeboo City size isn't determined by land size. It's determined by its population.

It seems that each year gets worse for the entire world no matter where you look, with all the rivalries between countries and people of power makes us only able to hope for the best
It was about 18 degree yesterday in Ireland....in November. I was going around in a t-shirt under green trees in Ireland in November. The world is defo getting warmer.
I feel so sad for the land.
NO TREES >>> NO RAIN. Simples !!
@@spaliverpool71 lot of dams on rivers =no water = no planting=no trees
@@montzar492 The rivers only carry water from forested lands. Forget about the dams. There are many methods of planting with little water as well. But you guys are not industrious. Quite thick actually.

Why don't the Americans help these poor people？
Solution simple, plant tree, consume less and using less than 20 km radius agricultural foods.
It is disgraceful the BBC keeps quiet about it: NO TREES >>> NO RAIN
Not that it is so easy growing trees in a desert. Ask the Chinese . . .

The documentation is incomplete. Need historical weather data.
Such beautiful civilisations with their unique cultures and way of life now lying totally decimated and on top climate change havoc🙏🙏🙏😔😔😔
Deforestation = more sun irradiation = higher temperatures = less water
It's such an easy thing to understand...
These people will remain crushed. Their own people and their scavenger attitude is destroying them. NO ONE CAN HELP THEM.

Stop drilling for oil, start drilling for water.
Lol go that to the countrys like America that was drilling for oil for so many years.

NO TREES >>> NO RAIN. Start forestation first
I barely survive in 30 degree weather, I would die there.
I never wish bad things to happen to anyone worldwide. But I do longer trust the media in almost anything. I respect life of all people the resources of our struggle on earth cannot be solved quickly or easily. I wish everyone the best. If I had the opportunity to help the world believe me that I would. Everyone has their own struggles to survive and I will leave it at that. If I could save the world which I still hope that I can I would. And that is all that I have to say from my heart ❤
In fact, this report was prepared in the summer when Turkey and Iran cut off the waters destined for Iraq, but in the time of autumn and winter, especially spring as we are now, Iran and Turkey are forced to open river water due to floods, this week floods and rains hit many Iraqi cities and the levels of river water, especially the Tigris and Euphrates, rose to the point of flooding! Floods peak in spring when Iraq is filled with water coming due to melting snow in the Iranian and Turkish mountains
Too much water is worse than not enough
They live in a desert what they expect ffs
They want their oil back
NO TREES >>> NO RAIN.
@@ggvgj2079 good luck with that lol
We have two rivers, you idiot!
But they are starting to dry up
Gentlemen: Trees, trees, trees and grasses are your best solutions.
So it has begun.
Dang, I thought it was always dry and hot there lol. I guess things can always get worse. It's getting worse all over the world. South America is being hit hard with drought. I wish the people in charge would wake up and do something about it but they're too greedy.

It will be an asteroid that kills us, otherwise the whole planet could be on fire and people would still be surviving.

My heart is with Iraqi people, I really hope that the desalination systems will be fully; operational. In the UAE water is available everywhere thanks to that. They can also afford some cloud seeding techniques to create rain clouds through condensation. With the current events in Iraq we just wish for a better governance and unity to reorganise the country.
i thought they were just redirecting the water by the big players. its hot all the time its the dessert... getting off the plane is like getting a hot blow dryer in your face. and they dont use deodorant
NO TREES >>> NO RAIN
Who told you we don't use it? Anyway, you look down on us
It's no mystery some don't wear deodorant from Rabat to Mumbai and may smell of garlic, curry or onion bhaji on the bus. I've seen it all before Ha Ha
Was the government ever interested in the Euphrates and Tigris rivers? What happened to the government's bad decisions?
iraq has never had these problems when the US and UK miliatary was there, all the sunden its apparing.
???
This is not true, these problems exist, maybe the temperatures were only lower at that time
I think you mean to say 'all of a sudden it's being reported on'.
@@decus9544 that is correct, a perfect world under the rule of the US+UN forces and now this??
