Climate change has local, national, regional and trans-regional consequences and is one of the most important challenges in the world in agriculture and the environment the world community will face it in the 21st century. The effects of climate change on the environment and society are complex and pervasive, and its main and most obvious consequence worldwide is the increase in temperature and change in precipitation patterns, which has led to the spread of desertification and successive droughts in the world. Drought is an integral part of climate change and is one of the main features of arid and semi-arid climates, so climate change is more noticeable on it. Climate change affects all sectors of the economy to some extent and has unknown and far-reaching consequences for natural ecosystems. It is also a very important factor in intensifying the occurrence of dust, biodiversity extinction, etc.
