Scientists reject notion that human-caused climate change led to war in Syria
'Human-influenced climate change impact on the drought conditions was almost certainly too small to have mattered'
2014 Study: 'The humanitarian crisis of the late 2000s largely predated the drought period. Focusing on external factors like drought and climate change in the context of the Syrian uprising is counterproductive as it diverts attention from more fundamental political and economic motives behind the protests and shifts responsibility away from the Syrian government.'
