POSTOLACHE, Alexandru Gabriel, ROTARU, Ciprian, GOLE, Iulian, DUMITRACHE, Victor. Climate change and desertification in Romania. In: Competitivitate şi inovare în economia cunoaşterii [online]: conf. şt. intern., ed. a 21-a: Lucrări ştiinţifice., 27-28 sept., 2019. – Chişinău: ASEM, 2019, pp. 237-242. ISBN 978-9975-75-968-7.
Climate change at the level of Romania generates one of the biggest challenges that the population is facing at the present time due to the disastrous effects through: increasing temperatures, drought of certain lakes, the risk of flooding on the other hand, which is increasing, modification of existing ecosystems as well as degradation of natural areas, but also the emergence of more and more diseases. In Romania, climate change affects all regions of the country, and the effects are increasingly visible, because if we look at the last few years, we observe the occurrence of unusual or unusual phenomena, all of which put a strong imprint on the quality of social and economic life. Climate change that has been felt more and more strongly in the last period of time, more exactly in the last decades, is a factor that triggers a disastrous series of consequences, affecting more and more the economic-social activity as well as the quality of life. Desertification is both a cause and a consequence of climate change and it often occurs when land management is not sustainable. This amplifies climate change, and agricultural lands lose their capacity to store the volume of greenhouse gases and carbon. JEL: Q5.
