ELZUBI @Al-Mamlaka TV – Heatwaves: A Wake-Up Call for Jordan

While record-breaking heatwaves dominate headlines in France and several European countries, some may assume that such events are far removed from Jordan. The reality, however, is that climate change knows no borders. What Europe is experiencing today is an early warning for countries already struggling with scarce natural resources—Jordan foremost among them.
Jordan is not only threatened by rising temperatures, but also by the cascading impacts: declining water resources, increased demand for water and energy, higher agricultural production costs, reduced crop yields, and the expansion of desertification. These challenges strike at the heart of food security and economic and social stability.
