ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION AND HABITAT PROTECTION IN UKRAINE

Protective afforestation is crucial in Ukraine because it is an agro-industrial nation with little forest cover. A high degree of agricultural land plowing up has resulted in erosion on more than 5 million acres of land. In large portions of Ukraine, the practice of reforestation of marginal agricultural land dates back more than a century. Afforestation projects are mostly to blame for the 0.1-0.3% annual growth in the overall forest area.

The State Forest Resource Agency (SFRA), a division of the Ukrainian Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources, is in charge of managing about 70% of all forests. The Agency’s regional bodies since 2004 have been regional forest directorates, one for each province.

Biodiversity in Ukraine has a lot of promise. On a comparatively small area, there are four different types of terrestrial ecosystems present. Additionally, a lot of animal species’ migration routes pass in Ukraine. More than 70 thousand species are found in both the plant and animal kingdoms.

The Concept of a National Program of Biodiversity Preservation for 2005–2025 guides biodiversity conservation policies in Ukraine. The Concept states goals include reducing anthropogenic impacts on biodiversity, protecting and restoring natural ecosystems, conducting research, and promoting environmental awareness.

EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE IN UKRAINE

Riverine, urban, and wildfire threats are all rated as being very high. Ukraine is becoming more susceptible to droughts, high temperatures, heat waves, heavy rains, mudflows, and floods as a result of climate change effects. Heavy rainstorms that can result in mudslides and flooding of vast tracts of agricultural land, homes, and commercial structures are thought to be the main cause of natural catastrophes.

Natural disaster risks and severity are predicted to rise in Ukraine due to climate as a result of increased temperatures, altered rainfall patterns, extended heat waves, and water scarcity. Natural disasters have become more frequent in the area recently, and several of them have been deemed catastrophic because they have killed many people and resulted in large financial losses.
