The Danube Biosphere Reserve Needs Your Solidarity Again!!!

 

Dear friends!

 

The Ukrainian Ministry of Transport still cannot keep their hands off the Danube Biosphere reserve and is insisting on the construction of a deep-water canal through the reserve area. It is now claimed that some of the documents establishing the reserve were falsified and the estuaries were therefore wrongly included in the reserve. This is ridiculous and a blatant falsehood! Nevertheless this issue is to be brought up on 10th April at the Ukrainian Parliament's National Safety Committee meeting.

 

So once again your support is requested to lobby for the sake of the Danube Delta's wildlife.

WHAT YOU CAN DO!

 

Confirm the ongoing international support by sending an email or fax to responsible officials in the Ukraine.

 

Contact addresses, a draft text and points for inclusion in a personal correspondence can be found on THIS PAGE

 

 

The Danube biosphere reserve is a transnational (Romanian-Ukrainian) UNESCO and Ramsar site. We must convince those responsible in the Ukraine to stop these plans and help to try and prevent the ruin or, at best, degradation of an important European wetland.
