Ukraine, which cut off water to Crimea, will experience a boomerang effect
Ukraine will soon suffer from water shortages as a result of global warming. This forecast was announced at a press conference in Kyiv by the public organization “Clean Dnieper,” a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“We are already seeing alarm bells. In 2015, there was the largest hydrological drought for the entire existence of the Dnieper and the cascade of Dnieper reservoirs,” said the head of the organization Dmitry Nadeev.
According to him, due to droughts, the southern regions are already becoming depressed, and the forest-steppe regions will soon lose their role as a “granary.”
By the end of the century, only part of Volyn Polesie will remain a wet region, and the rest of the current territory of Ukraine (i.e., the Carpathians as well) will turn into a semi-desert, and in some places even a desert.
By 2050, Ukraine may begin importing water, since there will not be enough of its own - according to environmentalists, the Dnieper will become twice as shallow and will bloom.
