I attended the lecture given by Prof. Alon Tal of Ben Gurion University on Wednesday.

Below is the link to the recording of the lecture, and my notes from it.

Will the Environment Survive Peace in the Middle East

Professor Tal spoke about the prevalence of transboundary pollution, regional challenges in regards to resources, discussed the importance of environmental issues in peace talks. He is optimistic about the future of the region and emphasized the role of civil society and US involvement in peace talks.
