干旱、人口增加、战争、空气污染、气候变化、工农业生产、制裁、水资源和自然资源利用效率低下，以及缺乏现有环境法规的执行，都是伊朗目前环境危机的原因之一。水资源不足正迫使人们迁移，给其他人带来压力。含水层正在被排干。空气污染使伊朗城市的生活条件越来越具有挑战性。风蚀加剧了农田的沙漠化，对剩余耕地产生了更大的生产需求。生物多样性正受到威胁。另一方面，公共、私营和非营利部门的合作可以对伊朗的环境未来产生积极影响。要解决这一问题，需要提高认识和教育，以及投入更多的财力和人力资源。
Drought, increased population, war, air pollution, climate change, industrial and agricultural production, sanctions, inefficient water and natural resource use, and lack of enforcement of existing environmental regulations have contributed to Iran’s current environmental crisis. Insufficient water resources are forcing people to migrate, putting pressure on others. Aquifers are being drained. Air pollution has made living conditions in Iran’s cities increasingly challenging. Wind erosion is furthering the desertification of agricultural land, creating greater production demand on remaining arable areas. Biodiversity is under threat. On the other hand, Iran’s environmental future can be positively influenced by the collaboration of the public, private and non-profit sectors. Awareness and education, along with greater financial and human resources, will be necessary to tackle the problem.
