Το Καζακστάν ιδρύει Ινστιτούτο Ερευνών για την Κασπία Θάλασσα εν μέσω περιβαλλοντικής κρίσης  Σε αυτό το επεισόδιο του Modern Nomads, στρέφουμε την προσοχή μας στην Κασπία Θάλασσα. Ο τοπικός θησαυρός που μοιράζονται πέντε παράκτιες χώρες -η Ρωσία, το Αζερμπαϊτζάν, το Ιράν, το Τουρκμενιστάν και το Καζακστάν- αντιμετωπίζει μια κρίσιμη πτώση της στάθμης της θάλασσας.

00:03Once a vital point along the ancient Silk Road,

00:06the Caspian Sea is now home to several major seaports.

00:09It remains one of Kazakhstan's greatest natural treasures

00:12and a grown environmental concern.

00:15Welcome to Kazakhstan!

00:16Welcome to Modern Nomads!

00:18We are beginning this episode in the Mangastao region,

00:28where the land meets the Caspian Sea.

00:31Over the past two decades, the sea level has dropped by more than two meters.

00:36Look at this mountain.

00:38Before that, there was a sea.

00:40And then, gradually, we started to fall into the sea.

00:43How long is this distance?

00:45About 300-400 meters.

00:49Well, that's how it is.

00:51With few other job opportunities,

00:53the town of Fort Shevchenko

00:55and nearby villages rely heavily on fishing.

00:58But as the water recedes,

01:00this vital source of livelihood is under threat.

01:03We are going to the sea.

01:06We are going to the sea.

01:08We are going to the sea.

01:10There is no fish here.

01:11There is no fish here.

01:12It's not just livelihoods that are vanishing.

01:17The crisis reshapes the entire ecosystem.

01:20The Caspian seal, the only mammal native to this region

01:23and found nowhere else on Earth,

01:25has seen its population drop by 90% over the past century.

01:30Along just one kilometer of this shoreline,

01:32we counted nearly 60 dead seals.

01:35Each time the western wind blows in from the sea,

01:38it brings bodies to the land.

01:40For ecologists, the Caspian seal is a key indicator

01:43of the sea's overall health.

01:45But as water levels continue to retreat,

01:47its habitat is disappearing.

01:49As we head down the Caspian coastline

01:55to the regional hub of Aktau,

01:57the scenery becomes less bleak.

01:59But despite the vibrant atmosphere,

02:01the signs of the shrinking sea are clear.

02:04We visit the regional hydrometeorological service

02:07to find out just how serious the situation is.

02:10The Caspian sea shared by five coastal countries,

02:34Russia, Azerbaijan, Iran, Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan

02:38has experienced major fluctuations in sea level.

02:41In 1977, it reached its lowest level

02:44in more than 120 years,

02:47minus 29.01 meters.

02:50After that, there was progress,

02:52but then sea levels started falling again.

02:55Experts say this decline is reaching a critical point.

02:58современное снижение уровня Каспийского моря

03:01связывается с изменением климата.

03:03Если говорить упрощенно,

03:05изменяется режим осадков по бассейну реки Волга,

03:08доивавшего около 85% стока в Каспийское море.

03:13Сейчас сток резко упал.

03:16The Volga river flows entirely through Russia,

03:19and with rising regional temperatures,

03:21experts say real cooperation and deeper research

03:24from all Caspian countries are urgently needed.

03:27Для нас важно, чтобы на региональном уровне

03:30началось сотрудничество,

03:32в том числе основанное на Тегеранской конвенции,

03:36которая действует уже в течение 20 лет,

03:40но за этот период еще не началась реализация.

03:44The Tehran Convention is meant to protect the Caspian's environment,

03:47prevent pollution and ensure a sustainable use of its resources.

03:51Kazakhstan is calling for stronger regional cooperation

03:54to turn those goals into action.

03:56В рамках этого проекта

03:58или как стратегического плана

04:00как мы должны адаптироваться,

04:02будут определены сейчас меры

04:04и они будут согласовываться

04:06с всеми прикаспийскими странами

04:08и будут, ну, надеюсь, что будут вестись в будущем

04:11совместные работы, усилия,

04:13чтобы стабилизировать, наверное, ситуацию,

04:15потому что сейчас мы не говорим о том,

04:17что мы можем как-то остановить

04:19и чтобы уровень поднялся дальше.

04:21Ассо for the marine inhabitants,

04:23local NGOs are stepping in.

04:25The Central Asian Institute for Environmental Research,

04:28together with local and international scientists,

04:31carried out 10 field missions

04:33to study the Caspian seal

04:35and assess its health.

04:36Their finders helped place the seal on the red list,

04:39a key step toward its protection.

04:41From its side,

04:43the government is launching the Caspian Sea Research Institute.

04:46The new center will focus on studying sea-level decline,

04:50protecting the Caspian seal

04:52and working with other coastal nations

04:54to preserve the region's unique ecosystem.
