ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION AND HABITAT PROTECTION IN BELARUS 

The Białowieża Woodland is a forest that lies between Poland and Belarus. It is among the last and biggest pieces of the enormous primordial forest that once covered the European Plain. 800 European Bison, the biggest land animal in Europe, reside in the woodland. Both the Polish Biosphere Reserve Biaowiea and the Belarusian Biosphere Reserve Belovezhskaya Puschcha were recognized by UNESCO’s Man and the Biosphere Programme in 1976 and 1993, respectively.

The Belarusian Biosphere Reserve, which is separated into transition, buffer, and core zones, has a total size of 216,200 ha in 2015. The forest has been named both an EU Natura 2000 Special Area of Conservation and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.By decision from the Heritage Committee in June 2014, the UNESCO World Heritage site “Belovezhskaya Pushcha/Białowieża Forest, Belarus, Poland” was expanded to become “Białowieża Forest, Belarus, Poland.” It is located 62 kilometers (39 miles) south of Biaystok, Poland, and 70 kilometers (43 miles) north of Brest, Belarus, where it shares a border with Poland’s Podlaskie Voivodeship. The extent of the Białowieża Forest World Heritage site is 141,885 ha. There is a border crossing available for hikers and cyclists due to the fact that the border between the two nations passes through the forest.

EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE IN BELARUS

With a population of about 9.5 million (as of 2019), Belarus contributes about 0.18% of the world’s overall emissions of greenhouse gases. Belarus had 6.8 t of CO₂Eq emissions per person in 2018, and despite the indicator’s recent wide swings, it generally increased. The economy’s carbon intensity reduced nearly four times between 1995 and 2012, making it the region of Europe with the greatest rate of transition to low-carbon development.

The two industries in Belarus with the highest percentages of GHG emissions are energy and agriculture, and here is where the majority of the mitigation potential is.

Belarus has an abundance of water, but because of increased flooding, heavy rain events, and altered drainage patterns, the quality of that water may decline. In a nation where about 40.1% of the land is forested, warming temperatures are likely to alter how ecosystems function, how forests are made up, and how some tree species, like spruce fare. Forests may be more susceptible to climatic risks like disease outbreaks and forest fires as a result of drought and rising temperatures.

Agriculture, human health, forestry, water resources, and energy are the industries that are most at risk.

GENDER EQUALITY IN BELARUS

The historical events that took place in Belarus, especially when the “idea of equal rights for women was first developed and substantiated in the late 16th century,” are what led to the development of women’s characteristics in Belarus today. One of the most significant legal texts in Belarusian history, the so-called Grand Duchy Charter of 1588, guaranteed the legal equality of women in Belarus. Every year on March 8th, International Women’s Day, Belarus celebrates women and their contributions to society.
