Environment and climate change in Kyrgyzstan
Kyrgyzstan is one of the most vulnerable countries in the region to climate change. The main challenges faced by residents, youth and children are air pollution, preserving the environment in its pristine and clean state, and respect for natural resources and wealth.
Young people across the country also play a big role in the issues of promoting climate conservation and the country's natural wealth. The more they write and talk about it, the sooner action will be taken.
Deadline: August 7, 2023.
