Global warming in the UAE

Global warming is a problem that affects all counties around the world. UAE has an effect in causing global warming, and on the other hand it has responsibilities to stopping this problem.

UAE is a country that has jumped from a dessert land with few thousands people living in it, to one of the most modern countries in the world with millions of people living in it, just in less than for decades. This tremendous change that happened came up with high pollution rate, because of the massive oil and gas production and the huge construction happened in the whole country.

UAE government had a lot of environmental awards because it saved wild life and increased green areas on a “dead land.” UAE has the biggest power research center in the world to find alternative efficient energy to reduce fossil fuel consumption. Also, UAE has built the first solar power station as a step to reduce pollution and as a result reduce global warming.
