The Department of Environment and Pollution held a seminar on the impact of climate change on biodiversity in Iraq
It included a lecture by Dr. Inam Ali, which dealt with the decline in biodiversity in Iraq due to climate change, the most important of which is the decline in animal numbers due to extinction, especially in the western region.
The seminar touched on the steps that Iraq has begun to implement within the commitment to the provisions of the International Convention on Biological Diversity, including preserving the protection of forests, expanding the cultivation of trees, especially those that consume the largest percentage of carbon, and protecting wetlands such as the marshes, as they absorb a large part of greenhouse gases.
