Shift of the Monsoon and Conflict in South Asia

This discussion asks you to now shift your focus to South Asia. There is worry among scientists and policy makers that climate change is having an impact on making the monsoon more variable. This part of the world is not only one of the most densely populated, but it also has a large population of people more susceptible to environmental impacts due to factors including poverty, food insecurity, water insecurity, and others. These compounding environmental factors can force more movement of peoples (climate refugees), famine, and conflict between nations, among other issues.Directions:For this assignment, you are to do the following:1. Read/listen to the articles listed below. Take notes. Click on the provided hyperlinks to take you to the articles. You are required to view “BBC Our World India’s Water Crisis” and “Climate Crisis in India: Heat Wave Causes Water Scarcity”. In addition, chose three of the four articles below to reference in your initial post:- https://www.dw.com/en/water-wars-are-india-and-pakistan-heading-for-climate-change-induced-conflict/a-47203933- https://psmag.com/environment/chennai-india-is-running-out-of-water-other-cities-will-be-soon- https://www.nature.com/articles/nature.2014.14800- https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/02/25/are-india-and-pakistan-on-the-verge-of-a-water-war-pulwama-kasmir-ravi-indus/BBC Our World India’s Water Crisis:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jscOuWpw_iUClimate crisis in India: Heat wave causes water scarcity:- https://youtu.be/11kERB3XAIMIf you are not certain on how to read a scientific paper, here is a helpful resource to give you some hints:- https://www.science.org/careers/2016/03/how-seriously-read-scientific-paperArticles must be properly cited with in-text citations. Here is a video to help if you’re not sure how to cite in APA format:- https://youtu.be/h66Oh-uYO2E2. Analyze the points you collected from the articles. Focus on sections where you can make connections to Diamond’s five-point framework. Here is a link to the video we watched at the beginning of the semester to refresh your memory:- https://youtu.be/IESYMFtLIis3. Using Diamond’s five-points, analyze the following questions/assumptions about the factors leading to South Asia’s recent troubles:Keeping Diamond’s Theory in mind, analyze the argument that climate change is adding environmental pressure to societal pressures in South Asian countries.What role, if any, has climate change played in causing potential conflict between India and Pakistan?How do dysfunctional societal factors increase the likelihood that India is more susceptible to climate related disturbance?4. Write a short 1 page (roughly 450-500 words) analysis where you discuss the prompts above.Spacing: Single-spacedFont: Times New RomanFont size: 12 ptMargins: 1-inch on all sidesPapers need to be written using proper spelling, punctuation, and grammar.
