Abu Dhabi

2000 BCE - 2015 CE

Abu Dhabi's environmental evolution is marked by a transition from natural desert landscapes to a contemporary urban hub. The expansion of the city has led to the alteration of native habitats, impacting the balance of the local flora and fauna. Rapid urbanization brought challenges such as habitat fragmentation and a rise in temperature. Efforts have been made to address environmental concerns, including the creation of green spaces and initiatives to protect the natural environment. Abu Dhabi's environmental narrative reflects the tension between urban development and preserving the delicate balance of its original ecosystems.
