Peace & Conflict Studies, University College, University of Toronto The Project on Environmental Change and Acute Conflict (1990 to 1993) found that scarcities of renewable resources - including cropland, forests, water and fish - are already contributing to violent conflicts in many parts of the developing world, even though these conflicts often appear to be caused solely by political, ethnic or ideological factors. The project concluded that these conflicts foreshadow a surge of similar violence in coming decades as environmental scarcities worsen in many developing countries. The Project on Environment, Population and Security (1994 to 1996) continued to explore the linkages among environment, population, security and governance. The Project on Environmental Scarcities, State Capacity, and Civil Violence. (1994 to 1998) The Case Study of Indonesia by Charles Victor Barber, World Resources Institute. Environmental Security Database: A comprehensive computerized database has been set up that includes quantitative data and abstracts of published and gray literature on demographic change, environmental scarcity, population movements, economic deprivation, and violence.
