Национальный доклад о состоянии окружающей среды: Узбекистан
Summary
The report provides a comprehensive analysis of Uzbekistan's environmental status using the DPSIR framework. It highlights critical challenges including severe water scarcity, land degradation, and the ongoing Aral Sea crisis, while noting progress in expanding protected areas and transitioning toward renewable energy. The document emphasizes the high vulnerability of the region to climate change, which manifests in rising temperatures and glacier loss, and outlines national strategies for adaptation and sustainable resource management.
Key insights
- Uzbekistan is highly vulnerable to climate change, with average annual temperatures rising by 1.6°C from 1880 to 2016, exceeding the global average.
- Agriculture is the primary consumer of water, accounting for an average of up to 90% of used water, yet water-saving technologies are implemented on only 23% of irrigated areas.
- The Aral Sea crisis has led to a massive loss of biodiversity, with over 50 species of wild animals and plants disappearing, including the Turan tiger and Asian cheetah.
- Air pollution is driven largely by mobile sources, with vehicles contributing approximately 63% of total emissions, and 88% of these mobile emissions occurring in Tashkent.
- Uzbekistan has committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions per unit of GDP by 35% by 2030 compared to 2010 levels.
- The state of protected natural areas is improving, with 11 new areas created between 2019 and 2022, bringing the total coverage to 14.08% of the country's area.
- Waste management remains a challenge; while municipal waste collection coverage reached 86% by 2022, the recycling rate is only 32.4%, and most waste is sent to landfills.
- The 'Yashil Makon' national project, launched in 2021, aims to plant 200 million trees and shrubs annually until 2030 to increase urban green spaces from 8% to 30%.
- Uzbekistan is transitioning to green energy, with plans to increase the capacity of renewable power plants to 27 GW by 2030.
- Human health is negatively impacted by environmental factors, with non-communicable diseases causing over 70% of all deaths in the country.
- Glacier loss in Central Asia is severe, with a 30% reduction in area over the last 50-60 years, which threatens future water security.
