Destruction of
forests
•Consumer forestry leads to the fact that the
area of forests affected by pests and
diseases is constantly increasing. And
valuable wood species (oak, beech and pine)
are replaced by low value (hornbeam, birch,
aspen).

deforestation is the increase in the
frequency and intensity of floods in the
western regions of Ukraine.

chlorine, fluorine, ammonia,
particles and compounds of
mercury and arsenic into the
air.

Low-quality water

•Ukraine is one of the most
urbanized countries in
Europe - almost 70% of the
population lives in cities.
High concentration of
man-made objects
contributes to
environmental pollution,
reduces the comfort of life.
•The main sources of air
pollution in the city are
transport, power systems
and industry. As a result,
noise, vibration and
electromagnetic pollution
of cities are formed.

radionuclides that went beyond
the 4th power unit of the
Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant
