VOICED: Pollution in the Garden of Eden

The video discusses the environmental crisis in the Shatt Al Arab River, where rising salinity and pollution are affecting local fishing and agriculture. The crisis is attributed to reduced water flow from tributaries, partly due to Iran's diversion of the Karen River. This has led to increased salt levels, harming farmland and wildlife. Additionally, industrial waste from an Iranian refinery is causing pollution. The video calls for urgent action to address these ecological challenges, which are straining Iraq's government and impacting local communities.
