Environmentalists Predict Higher Temperatures, Less Rainfall, Water Resources in Bulgaria | ||
Tuesday, Dec 29, 2015 | ||
Bulgaria is among the EU countries that rates lowest in terms of adaptation to global climate change but ranks in the top in terms of renewable energy sources development, according to a survey by the Regional Environmental Centre for Central and Eastern Europe (REC). REC Director Hristo Dounchev presented a climate change adaptation ranking of EU countries at a BTA-hosted news conference on Thursday. The survey predicts higher temperature, less rainfall and water resources in Bulgaria. According to environmentalists, south of the Balkan Range Mountains weather will become more Mediterranean and fertile land in the north could become desert but not in the next five to six years. Agriculture, forestry, energy and tourism will be affected by temperature and rainfall change, REC warns. Dounchev said that climate change will lead to decimation of more than half of the forests and a further decline of water resources. The annual river debits will fall, decreasing access to drinking water and affecting the operation of hydropower facilities. REC suggests adopting measures for prevention, organization of work in wake of disasters, caused by climate change, consequences and damage mitigation. |
