I’ve heard from the news a very unusual occurrence: Jeddah under flood waters! It’s a bit troubling for me at first, imagine a city, which all people around the world know to be in a hot and desert country is under flood waters! It’s another clear validation of climate change.
Perhaps, people themselves are responsible for the occurrence of disastrous floods. Waste management will only yield positive result if people will cooperate. No matter how good sewerage engineers plan and design sewage pipe lines, if people will continue to dispose their garbage irresponsibly, flooding will continue anywhere in the world.
