The Persian Gulf is one of the most valuable aquatic ecosystems in the world, and at the same time, it has a very sensitive and fragile environment. The events of the past decades show that not only the Persian Gulf has been the cause of important economic events in the world. Moreover, global security also depends on this unique water bed as a semi-closed sea. Due to its special geographical and strategic location, both in the past and now, the Persian Gulf has played a very important role in the formation of civilizations, societies, economy, politics, and international relations, and is the most important center of communication between the three continents of Europe, Asia, and Africa. Goes to the number A population of more than one hundred million people living in the Persian Gulf region. The oil resources in the Persian Gulf become a good consumption market for the industry, and that is why the Western competition is on capturing this market. This dependence on Persian Gulf oil implies geopolitical risks and many crises in the region. The presence of instability in these water areas as well as the increase in sea waves shows that this area leads to multiple factors of convergence, they have moved in the direction of divergence, and as a result, this important area has become and seems to be an unstable part of change. Many efforts can be made to preserve their geographical and biological values. In ۱۹۸۷, with the initiative of the coastal country of the region, the regional organization for the Protection of Marine Environment became the ۸th, and from the history of that organization, Iran is one of the active members in this field, but since the developments of the past years, the face of the region changed, it clarifies the necessity of cooperation on the region and the action of the region in coordination. Considering the fact that Iran is one of these regions of the Persian Gulf and more than half of the coasts of the Persian Gulf belong to it. In this regard, the current research has investigated the environmental drivers of the challenges between Iran and the Persian Gulf region and prioritized them using the method of mutual analysis of trends in order to investigate the drivers. The results indicate a hypothesis and indicate that according to the role of green technologies in the management of environmental challenges, the entanglement of environmental and economic fields, as well as Iran's capabilities and limitations in this field, Iran's environmental challenges are in the Persian Gulf until ۲۰۳۰. It will be in "acute and critical" condition.
