| Abstract | ||||
| Natural resources are considered the main sources for our life, which include mainly resources of water, energy and food. Along with the explosion of global population, these previous resources under a serious threat that enforce all nations to double the productivity of fresh water, clean energy, and healthy food by more than 50-70%. These increases are not so easy to achieve particularly under climate change. Several approaches are proposed to mitigate the climate change under the Water-Energy-Food (WEF) nexus especially applying nanomaterials (NMs). This review describes the evaluation and implementation of applying NMs under climate change seeks to remedy these problems by analyzing the literature of WEF nexus. The evidence that WEF nexus and climate change are associated with NMs is weak and inconclusive. What is not yet understood is the relative importance of the various factors that might support the global efforts to mitigate climate change and it environmental issues. Much of the available literature on WEF nexus deals with the question of what is the direct and indirect impacts of climate change on WEF resources, but What remains unclear is whether applied NMs is a true representation? The single most striking observation to emerge from the data comparison was several previous studies confirmed the importance of NMs for the environmental problems under certain doses. Thus far, a number of studies to explored the relationships between WEF nexus and climate change after applying NMs are needed. In view of all that has been mentioned so far, one may suppose that applied NMs are crucial for conserving WEF resources, but the nanotoxicity is a serious threat should be considered in the further studies. | ||||
