Abstract :
Climate change is considered as one of the
threaten to humanity and other organisms’ survival, as
well as it considered as threaten to the availability of
abiotic resources. Indeed, various research done to study
the impact of climate change on the environment across
the world, at the same time various research done to come
up with plan for adaptation and mitigation with climate
change impact. Further, most of the countries across the
world either they have their own plan, or they work in
collaboration with others to protect their natural
resources from climate change impact and find
alternative resources to manage the demand increases
specifically on water, energy, and land which needed for
economy development and human survival.
The major purpose of this paper is to study the
climate change impact on water resources of Bahrain and
review the actions taken by the government in this regard.
The change in the atmospheric temperature, the amount
of precipitation, the amount of the ground water, and the
raise of sea level were reviewed for a specific period.
Simultaneously, the actions taken by the government
either by establishing committees or starting projects
were traced. The result of this study shows that there is a
critical impact of the change in the climate on water
resources in Bahrain. Further, reviewing the action taken
by the government give an indication that impact is
noticed, and such actions will show a result in the future
through reduction on the impact of climate change on
water resources in Bahrain or through finding alternative
water resources.
