| The drought in Iran is worsening, but this isn’t going to spur radical and immediate political change. Let’s unpack it.
Tehran has over 10 million people that rely upon both surface water and aquifers, but a decade of drought has put strain on both water sources. The current draw rates are unsustainable, but that doesn’t mean it will reach a crisis point. Iran has already reduced water pressure across much of the capital to stretch supplies. Places like South Africa show that even if a tipping point approaches, rapid changes can help mitigate some of the fallout.
So, unless the taps run dry, I don’t expect this to cause political instability in Iran. |
