“Until now the main cause of civil war is a wealth of the nation in few men hands but Syria showed us another reason; Climate Change”

With this blog post, environmentalists at Norvergence have taken their research and study to a whole new level. The purpose of this content is to make people aware of how a climate change-driven drought can exacerbate conflict in a country.

Check the supporting video:

No one knew that drought in Syria could be one of the devastating factors that trigger the 2nd deadliest war of the 21st century. Experts believe that the Syrian civil war is the result of many interrelated factors such as sociopolitical tensions, religious tensions, bad condition of the economy, and other political changes that swept across the Middle-East.

Norvergence: Throws a Light on Earth Summit 2002 which we all forgot

Posted on by norvergence

Today, Norvergence will remind you about the famous “World Summit on Sustainable Development, Johannesburg-2002”.

The summit included a vast number of delegates from different countries, environmental organizations, citizen groups, and justice associations. Norvergence also made a list of the areas that were addressed and discussed at that summit:

  • Globalization
  • Cleaner Energy
  • Water quality
  • Oceans and Fisheries
  • Tourism
  • Technology

The main aim of the summit was to make a global commitment to promote sustainable development. Countries should ensure that the development which comes at the price of natural resources should not exceed a predefined limit.

Norvergence Summarized the Outcomes of the Summit

Many governments agreed to adopt energy sources that are not harmful to nature. On the other hand, Oil producing and exporting countries (OPEC) and the United States opposed the “green sources” due to their personal issues.

Overall, even after 17 years of the summit, we are still not 100 percent committed towards sustainable development. Norvergence hopes that every individual understands his/her responsibility and take suitable actions wherever possible.
