The Climate, Atmosphere and Research Institute at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (CAWRI-BAS) is organizing a conference and celebratory event dedicated to water – an invaluable natural resource, an irreplaceable component of all organisms and living environments, but also a generator of extreme events such as storms, hailstorms and floods. The occasion marks three international days – the World Day for Glaciers (March 21), World Water Day (March 22) and World Meteorological Day (March 23).
The forum also includes an official event under the auspices of UNESCO and the World Meteorological Organization, which will be broadcast live online, reported BTA. On March 21, in the Great Hall of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (National Assembly Square in Sofia), CAWRI-BAS director Prof. Ekaterina Bachvarova and Prof. Boyan Kulov will present innovative ideas for restoring wetlands along the Danube River under the European project DaWetRest. Prof. Emil Burnazki will speak about Bulgaria's water resources and the current water crisis. Prof. Emil Gachev from CAWRI-BAS will present a film about his research on the disappearing small glaciers in the mountains of Southeastern Europe.
The event is open to the public, and a quiz with questions about water will be organized for on-site visitors.
