Rising right-wing in Europe and Water conflicts
  1. Water conflict
    1. Trans boundary water conflict over the Mekong river
      1. China
        1. China owns over half the river's upper basin, which is one of the poorest areas of China. This makes this area convinient for a hydroelectric power station. Damning this river would prevent countries with access to the lower areas of the river from using it, as it will dry up
        2. Myanmar
          1. Myanmar owns many tributaries coming off of the mekong river , but none of those below where the plans for china's dam woulds effect
          2. Laos
            1. One of the world's poorest countries and relies on the Mekong river for 90 percent of their water for agriculture
              1. creating the dam would prevent access to this water, decreasing their economy dramatically, and could potentially cause hunger problems
              2. Laos also uses the dam for hydroelectric power to produce cheap, renewable energy. Without access to the river, Laos would have less energy
              3. Thailand
                1. The Mekong river covers 36 percent of Thailand
                2. Vietnam
                  1. the river gives vietnam extremely fertile land which is 50,000km squared. Without access to the river, this land wouldn't be fertile and agriculture would no longer be a source of income for vietnam
                    1. agriculture produces income for 40 percent of Vietnam's population
                    2. Cambodia
                      1. Most of Cambodia is covered by the Mekong river, and relies on flooding of the river to grow rice efficiently
                        1. using the river for hydroelectric power would prevent detrimental deforestation in Cambodia
                          1. this could boost Cambodia's economy dramatically
                            1. this would prevent Vietnam's access to Mekong's resources
                    3. Rising right wing
                      1. Extremist parties in Europe are on the rise
                        1. causes of tension
                          1. Brexit
                            1. right wing exremist groups respond to international extremist groups by blaming migration and migrants for these acts of violence when they are
                            2. impacts
                              1. Right wing extremist groups form
                                1. more people support these views as they think it favours them and their country, when in fact many industries and areas rely on migrant workers and migration to function properly
                              2. solutions
