Moldova: Moldova Environment Profile 2011
2010/12/30
Thanks to international norms and pressure, environmental concerns have made it onto Moldova’s policy agenda. Moldova’s energy consumption is still largely dependent on (Russian) oil and, most of all, gas. The share of renewable energy is negligible. Access to potable water remains a serious issue in rural areas, especially for the Roma population, although up-to-date statistics are scarce. Major legacies of industrial and agricultural pollution remain unaccounted for and unresolved in Moldova. These legacies have serious consequences for public health.
