The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region is warming twice as fast as the global average. With summer temperatures already exceeding 50°C and desalination providing 90% of freshwater, climate change is an existential challenge.
This book delves into the critical and timely issue of climate change and its far reaching impacts on the GCC. As one of the world’s most arid and energy intensive areas, the region faces unique challenges related to rising temperatures, water scarcity, and the need for a sustainable energy transition.
This book provides the first comprehensive, data driven assessment of how GCC countries can turn their ambitious climate pledges into reality – balancing economic growth, water security, and energy transition. It critically evaluates the region’s climate commitments and their feasibility in achieving long term sustainability goals.
Key features include:
- Comprehensive Analysis – A detailed examination of the interplay between climate change, environmental policies, and economic growth in the GCC.
- Data Driven Insights – Incorporation of the latest statistics, tables, and case studies to provide a robust foundation.
- Holistic Approach – Integration of environmental, economic, and policy perspectives for a balanced, interdisciplinary view.
- Innovative Solutions – Focus on emerging technologies and strategies addressing water, energy, and food security.
This book is an essential resource for policymakers, researchers, and anyone interested in understanding the path toward climate resilience and sustainable development in the GCC. With accessible language and actionable insights, it bridges the gap between technical expertise and real world application.
