In 2022, they also released a National Climate Change Strategy (NCCS). The NCCS has 4 main aims. The first is the analysis of strengths and weaknesses of Egypt's climate change adaptability. Its goal is to achieve sustainable economic growth. It also emphasizes the importance of governance, improvements in infrastructure, technology, research ...
Urban centers of the Indus Valley Civilisation were abandoned and replaced by disparate local cultures because of the same climate change that affected the neighbouring regions to the west. [60] As of 2016, many scholars believed that drought and a decline in trade with Egypt and Mesopotamia caused the collapse of the Indus civilisation. [61]
Climate change has been linked to human migration from as early as the end of the Pleistocene to the early twenty-first century. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] The effect of climate on available resources and living conditions such as food, water, and temperature drove the movement of populations and determined the ability for groups to begin a system of ...
A 2019 paper published in PLOS One estimated that under Representative Concentration Pathway 4.5, a "moderate" scenario of climate change where global warming reaches ~2.5–3 °C (4.5–5.4 °F) by 2100, the climate of Alexandria in the year 2050 would most closely resemble the current climate of Gaza City. The annual temperature would ...
A team of researchers from Mainland China and Hong Kong were able to establish a causal connection between climate change and large-scale human crises in pre-industrial times. Short-term crises may be caused by social problems, but climate change was the ultimate cause of major crises, starting with economic depressions. [31]
Notions of a changing climate most likely evolved in ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, the Indus Valley and China, where prolonged periods of droughts and floods were experienced. [4] In the seventeenth century, Robert Hooke postulated that fossils of giant turtles found in Dorset could only be explained by a once warmer climate, which he thought ...

Climate change poses significant challenges for rainfed agriculture and therefore the entire economy. [114] Analysis of weather patterns suggest drought conditions and other extreme weather increased in Sudan during the 20th century. [115] The relationship between climate change, water conflict and the war in Sudan has also been a topic of ...
