Iraq's Dying Garden of Eden
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 жов 2022
- In Iraq, climate change has transformed the once mythical mesopotamian marshes into deserts. It's not only temperatures that exceed 125°F and record low rainfall, but dams built by Turkey, Iran, and Syria on the Tigris and Euphrates river have stopped the flow of water before it can pass the border. Thousands have already been displaced in a drought that threatens the entire country.

I'm deeply worried about how badly drought will devastate the developing world. It is so much worse than many people realise and we are so vulnerable and don't have the infrastructure to cope.
The droughts over time will cause more and more migration, link that with the rise of authoritarian governments all across the world, and you probably have one of if not the greatest humanitarian crises to ever exist.
the developing world has had to live under the brutality of the "developed" world for quite some time. The question you need to ask is what will the developed world do when climate collapse takes phoenix, or salt lake city or any of the foolish cities built on deserts. Unlike these people, the west is not used to this kind of loss.
Rich country’s won’t bat an eye until they can’t stuff their mouths with the next crabby patty due to water shortages.
Iraq back in those days especially the Abbasid caliphate was never that bad. It’s sad to see it gone
@@scientifico So it's everyone else's fault that Saddam drained the marshes? The man in the video explicitly stated that the main problem is the government doesn't care. Something could be done, they just dont care.
My parents left Iraq in the mid-90s and never saw the old country ever again. Even though I was only 8, it's still a gap that's basically impossible to fill. Always being a foreigner, yet never having a home to return to feels like exile...."And they admitted that they were foreigners and strangers on earth."
You are home.
so why don't you go back ?
You can go visit it now my mom went this summer this vids hilarious it literally just shows poor areas go watch jay pelfrey and gus1thego go to iraq people don’t like any good news so they always talk about bad things ecpeccially in middle east
However this is a sad serious thing and water is probably expensive there I’m sure they get imports but those are costly. I’d say vist it before it gets worse
❤
I feel for these people. It reminds me how fortunate we are to have fresh drinkable water whenever we need it.
Which you have to pay
"whenever we need it" For now.
Idk bout that one. Water over here in the western US is getting low as well.

For now....tomorrow the water may never come.
'What is hard? Hard is an understatement'. This hit me even harder.
My family can trace our history back to this marshes. These marshes were more than a place to grow a flock; it was a place of civilization and pride. This video genuinely breaks my heart, and the tears of Freha are my tears as well.
hey iraqi. are you missing saddam hossein? if saddam alive. Israel has no power to kill palestaine. he could bring water from neighbhour country. democracy means corruption. only bad leader are get profit from democracy. they will send your money to america and canada.
Some entity cut off the water supply
And a place to play with goat butthole...
Sorry to hear this friend
I pray for you, I will never meet you or hear from you ever again but my heart is filled with sadness and my eyes with tears for you and all your families 🙏 I am so so sorry for you all 😪
The poor Iraqi people have been through so much. They need the International community to do something ASAP. Thanks Vice for publishing important videos like this.
@na "You all pretend to help?" Who exactly are you all? Bit of an assumption there about millions of people.
The international community is also at fault here. Look at those dams in Turkey and Iran. They use the water for themselves. selfish neighbors.
@na Nah, not international, local.
Their neighbors are the ones who built the dams and stopped the water.
@na Flights leave everyday, why don't you head on over there and give them a hand?
They are surrounded by rich Muslim countries and have oil barrels to help their own country. What they need to do is give up their crazy religion and change to modern democratic country.
As an iraqi I love these documentarys that yall do on iraq to showcase the kind of problems we face. Much appreciated vice. Keep up the good work on the reports on iraq. Hopefully more to comd

Iran is the prime example of how you can have 'an unlucky geography' with certain neighbours. Georgia is another example.
Iran has grudges against Iraq because of the battle of Dhi Qar before Islam and the battle of Qadisiyah in the early days of Islam
Until now the two battles were led by the Iraqis against Iran
I remember being there in 2006 and it was full of life..

It’s so frustrating that nothing is general is being done for the planet, it’s so discouraging.

FYI it is not due to climate change but because Turkey Syria Iran use almost all river water
Good point but what can Iraq do? We don't want war I'm sure they don't so how do you convince Turkey and Syria to be less stingy with the water?
Also, Saddam purposefully drained a lot of the marshes after an uprising in the '90s.
Turkey Syria Iran started using almost all river water because of climate change. There is less water overall, Iraq is seeing the differential.
This ! Has nothing to do with climate change . The real problem we will have is securing of natural resources
@@cancerino666 No, they're using more water because of population growth.
Another great news video thanks.
The destruction of the iraqi marshlands is heartbreaking for not just the people of the marshlands, not just Iraqi people, but the world. Civilization sprung from these marshlands. This is where the first city states emerged. It’s heartbreaking to watch it disappear. That’s thousands of years of not just natural history, but also historic society, just gone.

Its so distressing. I feel for the people, the animals & just the hopelessness. ..how can it get better. Im here with running water, food & pets....it will come to us before too long.
This is very said and makes me feel helpless.
This is really depressing...
That's why it's news worthy
It just breaks my heart to see the cradle of human civilisation devastated like this, we need global experts and environmental organisations and activists to stand with us because the Iraqi government is very corrupt and most of the political powers in Iraq are backwards and stupid plus turkey and Iran are cutting off the water so the fate of the original garden of Eden is very grim and needs all the help it can get...
Thanks to Vice for doing their part.
where do you get your information saying this place is the original Garden of Eden? You are wrong.
@@shebamaree9026 Bible
Well you people created Isis religious extremism now nature is punishing you for it.
@@MakimaLover32 where in the bible does it say garden of Eden was in Iraq?
@@t.mblock8658Genesis 2:10-14 lists four rivers in association with the garden of Eden: Pishon, Gihon, Hiddekel (the Tigris), and Phirat (the Euphrates)
Really powerful piece, also... that reed room at the end of the story is kind of fascinating!
Putting full focus on the government as the sole perpetrator of this calamity while giving a shoutout to one of the main causes of it (Turkey and Iran's dams) is really misleading. What Iraq is going through right now is done by outside players; namely, the U.S., Turkey, Syria and Iran. And I can hardly blame Syria either since they are being pushed by Turkey in every aspect.
Let's start at the root cause of Iraq's destruction, namely the USA & Europe.
Turkey is only another victim of the western elite.
You can look at any problem the world is, has and will face. At the source of every problem is a white man or a bunch of white men.
That's FACTS!
I was quite surprised on the lack of reporting on how the dams have effected the water ways. The same issue is happening with China daming the tributaries of the Mekong in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos
If we have a look at the majority of conflict zones of the last 30 years. The people were living a traditional life. Healthy happy, simple.
Was thinking that also.
Guessing the govt can still help them though, possibly hah
In Saddam's time Iran and Turkey did not even dare to build any dams, because they knew Saddam would just bomb them. It's just now when Iraq is weak that this is happening. Iraq now spends over $40B buying Iranian and Turkish products and thats where the authorities in Baghdad need to come into play and use this as a pressure tool but they aren't doing it simply because they are only puppets to foreign countries.
Vice runs laps around every cable network new station. Id like to have the same thing on a local level, that would be awesome
If you’re an individual who wishes to reverse climate change, please let us also take some action; even if it may be small, it has to be consistent. We can begin with just developing a general sense of respect for animals and nature after which we can create greater awareness and a political revisions concerning the environment.
I love the climate changing...
Things will never change and only get worse.
2180 BC The Nile dried up and Egypt was decimated with famine. Was that climate change caused by the cars they were driving in 2180 bc? Or was it their solar panel factories? You have no idea how much if any impact human activity has on this change vs. natural climate changes, just as happened in 2180 BC.
You cannot reverse what is already prophesied in the Word of God.

Thank you for this report, which reflects my suffering
All over the world water scarcity is a problem. It's tough seeing these people in a bad situation.
Some live for excess
Water excess is also a problem. My asian country's getting more and more typhoons each year,killing our crops with floods and strong winds.
This is more than that, The neighbours are cutting off the water
Not tough to see for Saddam. After the First Gulf War, Saddam Hussein aggressively revived a program to divert the flow of the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers away from the marshes in retribution for a failed Shia uprising in 1991.
Yes exactly! How dare anyone claim that countries surrounded by deserts and are part of a region known for its water scarcity are more susceptible to water shortage! I can’t believe how stupid people can be… I mean look at developed countries they have huge lakes, rivers and glaciers as well as infrastructure to sustain all that. People don’t understand that they are equally susceptible!! Poor them, they don’t have dust storms to make it more obvious 😢

Awesome content, very informative 👍🏻
Vice and Ground News (App used to tell if stories are more leaning to the right, left or just in the center/independent) are my top two news places to get information from.
This is a horrible situation, but my sense is that the reporter 's narrative is that this is primarily caused by climate change. He barely mentions the building of the upstream dams. I feel like he's only given us part of the story.
dams from turkey and Iran killing Iraq's river silently, while politician were focusing on magical dust problems
Its in the video but only for short time...
Dams didn't cause their worst drought in decades.
Thanks for bringing new and unique content as usual. New subscriber here
In the mountains or maybe where they live at night pretty cold, the moisture in the air, the fog net would be perfect,to produce fresh drinking water
Vice is one of my favourite programs, but this I have to question deeply, Eufraties and Tigris which are the reason of Mesopotamias (Iraqs) former wealth, but the main reason all this area has dried out has little to do with global warming and 90% to do with water disputes between neighbouring countries where Turkey has build huge dams and irrigations upstream!. Very little of the water that used to flow to Gulf is ending there now.
The same thing is happening to Salt Lake City. We started with lake Bonneville and then human beings came along and dried up the last of the remaining great salt lake …. Utah lake is going to disappear too

Thanks for spreading the problem of the marshes of Iraq. I hope it will come back better and the residents will return to live in it in peace 🙏🏞️
Did you say come back,it will get worser because it's will dry up completely according to the BIBLE.
The cause of this isn’t climate change, the cause is recent dams that have been built upriver in Iran & Turkey. When you dam the flow of water feeding wetlands such as these in Iraq, the wetlands dry up. It’s pretty simple.
But of course “they” won’t recognize that simplicity, instead it’s my fault because I don’t drive an electric vehicle or have solar panels on my roof 🤦♂️
It's so devastating to see those poor people suffer like that. It's not their fault.
I'm one of these poor people
I don't mean be disrespectful but I literally cried watching this brother. It's so unfair.

Wow we are lucky to have food on our table everyday and we are still complaining . ..God bless these people
These conditions are definitely NOT the result of climate change. The building of dams and more dams and the late leader Hoesein building channels to divert the water for industrial purposes have led to this. The same started happening with the Colorado River in USA. Where the river was supposed to meet the sea the whole delta had dried up and all wildlife, fish and plants disappeared. The US government has investigated and all dams not serving a purpose any longer were demolished to return the water to the river.

Check weather past and see when that happened last. Because it has
@@rjjenkins5601 I did check, every year was 50F but this year.
Very unfortunate... this case and several others happening around the world gives us a glimpse of things to come, with Climate Change and the desperation that the extremes will cause.
While the case in Iraq has largely to do with dams in neighboring nations, in the end it's all related. Countries that have the conditions will dam as much freshwater as they can to delay shortages, those downstream will get hit faster, and more drastically, they will blame governments for it, and from there to revolution and civil war it doesn't take much.
The real problem with Climate Change is just that - too much energy in the system, taking everything to the extremes. Droughts will become the most visible and symbolic, but excessive rain all at once, huge storms, hurricanes and typhoons, chaotic weather events and seasons... all of those will disrupt everything. Humanity is used to and depends on a certain regularity and steadiness of weather and climate, the problem with Climate Change is the speed of change.
May the Iraqi people find a way of relocating and adapting...
Wow. Now we know how much you know. Well done.
Saddam did this: After the First Gulf War, Saddam Hussein aggressively revived a program to divert the flow of the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers away from the marshes in retribution for a failed Shia uprising in 1991.
That I agree with but it seems disingenuous to keep saying climate change when in this case it’s jerks inhumanely damming the water
