Czech Republic
Climate change impacts
It takes only 222 days for the average Canadian to produce as much greenhouse gases as the average Czech will produce over the course of the entire year. Therefore, August 10th (222 days into the year) is "Climate Change Impacts in Czech Republic Day."
Climate change in the Czech Republic is expected to have a great impact on agriculture. The occurrence of droughts will increase and the level of water in reservoirs will see a significant decrease. These issues will be compounded with a decrease in rainfall, making conditions more unfavourable for agriculture and lead to a decrease in the amount of productive land and crops. Water in rivers will experience a warming effect and this will lead to negative impacts on fish and plant species.
