Dear
subscribers,
Coastal development,
large-scale projects without impact assessments,
polluted rivers, wildfires, and a lack of
transparency — all of these point not only to
climate change, but also to systemic failures in
natural resource management. In this issue: the
Bonn climate talks, the Roghun Dam, and a locust
invasion. We explore where decisions are made
behind closed doors, and where inaction is
already taking a toll on ecosystems.
New opportunities for
activists are listed at the end of this
issue.
We’re always open to
hearing your thoughts, ideas, or stories — don’t
hesitate to get in touch.
Sincerely,
The
CAN EECCA Team

Key climate
negotiations took place in June in Bonn to shape

their voices heard amid a serious shortfall in
climate financing. Representatives of the CAN
EECCA network attended the talks and shared
their impressions.
Locusts are rapidly
multiplying on the dried lands of the Kakhovka
Reservoir, and farmers are warning of

National Wildlife Agency under the "National
Species Recovery Plan", the program opened a
60-hectare deer breeding farm in Algeti National

The canal is overgrown
with algae and reeds, and emits a foul smell. 15
million tenge was allocated from the city budget
for cleanup. Experts say the issue is worsened
by extreme heat.
Germany is a key
partner of Moldova, as evidenced by tangible
actions: projects to improve energy efficiency
in schools, waste management, and water and
sanitation systems are underway thanks to German
support.
The minister
highlighted the 2022–2026 climate adaptation
plan and outlined steps including water-saving
technologies, water management reforms, and
infrastructure to reduce water loss.
Mid-July reports of
construction near Charvak Reservoir sparked
public backlash. Activists voiced concern over
restricted water access, strain on
infrastructure, environmental risks, and lack of
transparency.
Hot and dry weather has
sharply increased fire risk in green zones.
Studies show human activity remains the main
cause of forest fires.
Changes to the Vakhsh
River’s flow during the dam's construction and
reservoir filling could significantly reduce
water flow into the Amu Darya, harming
downstream ecosystems, agriculture, and water
supply.

According to the UN
Secretary-General, $2 trillion was invested in
clean energy last year — $800 billion more than

point in global climate policy.
