UAE and Global Warming


I was interested how the United Arab Emirates care in global warming, so I did some research on the net and I found many articles. I selected two articles and Iam going to write on both articles. The first one was saying that there was a seminar on Abu Dhabi on GCC's peaceful nuclear programme and topics which were included in the seminar are the reality and strategies of using nuclear power for generating electricity, global warming, greenhouse gases and components of nuclear reactors. In addition, there are international standards about nuclear program which all the world should follow. This is what Director General of the Institute of Diplomacy said.

In the second article, it says that, there were Environment 2007 Conference in Abu Dhabi and it was the most important one on the Gulf. Also this conference was showing how the UAE wants to protect the environment, and to make a discussion which focus mainly on energy sources, including solar, wind and other renewable sources of energy from the marine environment and coastal areas, as well as water treatment and desalination technologies through the use of highly effective means of energy. In addition, His Highness Sheikh “Hamdan Bin Zayed Al Nahyan” said that the UAE is a major oil and gas producer, yet we have focused in recent years on renewable energy resources so as to provide cost-effective and environment-friendly energy. Also, according to scientists, renewable energy sources have the potential of providing us with as much clean energy as we need. This will reduce emissions which are the main cause of global warming. Also they believe that global warming will have a devastating effect on the world if heavy reliance on conventional sources is not reduced.
