Conclusions and suggestions
Influence
of climate change on water resources depends not only on changes in the volume, timing and quality of
surface runoff, but also on the characteristics of the water system, varying impacts on this system:
Technical condition of the water system;
Timeliness of repairs and reconstruction;
Sufficient funds for their conduct;
52
The development of water-and energy-saving technologies;
Improving the management systems;
Staffing, scientific and technical support, etc.
Complex (integrated) water management should improve the capacity of water users to adapt to climate
change and mitigation.
Climate change significantly affects the water resources situation in Central Asia. Hydropower and ag-
riculture in this region are particularly sensitive to climate change because they have a direct impact on river
runoff and, consequently, the development of hydropower and agricultural production.
Reducing the negative effects of climate change impacts on the region or a single economic sector de-
pends on the degree of preparedness at regional and national levels of the opportunities and reduce the likeli-
hood of economic damages.
In this regard, investment projects should include such steps as assessing the current situation, develop-
ing adaptation strategies for water resources management, the draft new measures to protect against floods to
climate change, the definition of further actions to improve scenarios of regional climate change and its im-
pact on model water, that is to be executed climatic vulnerability assessment project.
Taking into account the high vulnerability of water resources in the process of climate change impacts
and related food, energy and environmental security, the growing need for water resources, to solve adaptive
problems must be more involved in international financial development institutions.
For an objective assessment of the costs of implementing adaptation measures and risk reduction, we
need to increase research on forecasting and monitoring of climate change, seeing them as an essential pre-
investment phase of the training projects related to water use in various industries.
For the Republic of Kazakhstan, the transition to sustainable development is a defining necessity in the
occurrence of Republic of Kazakhstan in 50 competitive in the world, in accordance with the Address of the
President of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The UNDP / MEP provides assistance in the implementation of the
Concept of transition of Kazakhstan to Sustainable Development for 2007–2024, approved by Presidential
Decree of November 14, 2006 N 216 [7].
Currently in the process of transition to sustainable development of the position of the Government of
Kazakhstan to implement the commitments following the ratification of the Kyoto Protocol to the UNFCCC
requires a radical revision of models of economic growth in Kazakhstan, which is mainly due to the increase
in commodity prices on world markets and heavy reliance natural resources and without the need to transi-
tion to a low carbon development. Following the ratification in April 2009, Mr. Kyoto Protocol, Kazakhstan
has actively joined the global movement to prevent global climate change and began to work actively to meet
the requirements of the UNFCCC and the Kyoto Protocol at the national level.
Climate change in Central Asia will manifest itself as:
Fever the changed nature of rainfall;
Increased aridity;
Increased frequency of extreme weather events and etc.
All this will be accompanied by increased frequency and intensity, in particular, floods, droughts, landslides, melt-
ing glaciers and landslides. Until not be implemented timely, coordinated and sustainable adaptation measures is likely
that the country will suffer considerable economic damage, will face a humanitarian stress and environmental degrada-
tion as a result of climate change.
Having committed themselves to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the Government will actively promote a pol-
icy of adaptation and mitigation of the impact of climate change on key sectors of the economy. Joint project of UNDP
facilitate the process of preparing the National Program on Adaptation to Climate Change.
