Abstract :

Climate change is a phenomenon of concern not only to countries in the Arab World but also to all countries all over the world, though the Arab region is at a disadvantage due to its predisposition to harsh climatic conditions. The energy sector is the main contributor to climate change which in turn results in changes in water quality and quantity, sea level, human health, food production, tourism and security. Arab World counties have attempted to adapt to or mitigate the effects of climate change but there are numerous challenges that they must overcome in order to keep up with these changes. Some mitigation factors in the industrial sector and building sector mainly those in search of substitute fuels to oil are far-reaching if the countries can cooperate in their efforts. Since the area has resources to implement comprehensive changes, it is recommended that stakeholders work together in order to achieve synchrony in their efforts.
