Episode 22: Syria's poisoned earth: how war impacts the environment and the lives that depend on it
Manage episode 353360741 series 3440713
It seems counter-intuitive to talk about environmental issues in Syria, in the face of overwhelming human suffering. Yet, human life requires functioning ecosystems, and over 10 years of war has left Syria's water and land in shambles. This episode's guest, Loujein Haj Youssef, Editor-in-Chief at the independent Syrian news platform Rozana Radio, conducted an investigation into the specific environmental impacts caused by several parties involded in the war, and what the concrete consequences are for the local population today and in the future. You can read the full article on the investigation here.
Learn more about the environmental impacts of war and conflict in the joint WWF-adelphi report 'The Nature of Conflict and Peace'.
