During a briefing held for the media, the project manager Ms Kameliya Dzhanabetska presented the goals and objectives of the Information day dedicated to the fight against climate change under Strategic project „Joint Risk Monitoring during Emergencies in the Danube Area Border“. She emphasized the major role each student or adult played in the efforts for providing cleaner air in the urban environment and indicated the determinate steps everyone had to take in their everyday life. The topic is a significant one and is a problem of the present day due to the increasing speed by which climate change exerts negative impact upon human life and the environment and the adverse effects of environment-unfriendly economic activities.
“Dangerous natural disasters such as draughts, soil erosion, floods, storms, landslides and others become more common than ever. We commit to face the challenge by contributing to the efficient use of resources, application of environmentally friendly technologies and development of a low-carbon emissions economy”, she said.
