As part of the outputs of the Dubai International Program for Writing (DIPW), an initiative
undertaken by the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Knowledge Foundation (MBRF), a new
collection of scientific books has been published by the program in Arabic.

The books were prepared by Macao Group Publishing’s scientific team and were later translated into
Arabic under the supervision of Dr. Ghanim Al Samarrai. The latest publications include Waseela Mustafa
Hamam’s translation of the book ‘Renewable and Alternative Energy’.

The book explores the influence of global warming on climate change around the globe, such as glacier
melting, droughts, heatwaves, off-season rains, and seasonal shifts.

Furthermore, the book focuses on fossil fuels, which are a non-renewable energy source that will
eventually be depleted. Fossil fuels account for around 80–85% of global energy, with renewable energy
accounting for the remaining 15–20%.

Considering the rising need for energy, relying on fossil fuels would exacerbate global warming,
emphasizing the critical need to produce sustainable and renewable energy.

The collection also includes Mariam Mahmoud Saad’s Arabic translation of the book ‘Global Warming
and Biodiversity.’ It covers biodiversity on Earth and showcases the importance of maintaining ecological
stability and overall global health.

Meanwhile, climate change poses a significant threat to biodiversity. With rising global temperatures,
plants and animals confront tremendous hurdles in adjusting to rapid ecosystem changes.

These changes include rising temperatures, shifting rainfall patterns and breeding seasons, and fewer
interactions between animals and plants.

These factors lead to the endangerment of various species. It is estimated that a temperature increase of
more than 3.5 degrees Celsius on Earth might result in the extinction of over 70% of known species.

This highlights the need for immediate action to conserve biodiversity and ecosystems from the negative
effects of climate change.

DIPW further released the ‘Climate Change’ book, translated by Hajar Ali Musa into Arabic. The book
explores climate change phenomena and various components that influence weather, such as rainfall,
temperature, air pressure, and humidity.
