The Great Hungarian Plain will be a desert if nobody acts ASAP – says a Hungarian researcher
Change language:
Researchers nowadays talk about climate change as an obvious fact, but most people do not experience anything of it, except for the warmer summers and the snowless winters. A Hungarian researcher from Debrecen explained how dangerous the current processes are for everybody living in Hungary because they can result in the desertification of large territories.
Valasz Online did a long interview with Balázs András Lukács, researcher of the Centre for Ecological Research of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences Centre of Excellence. He said that regarding the Hungarian water supply, a new notion has to be introduced known until now only in Mediterranean countries: temporary water. These are waters that do not exist throughout the whole year. They did not exist in Hungary 6 years ago; however, today,
there are at least 37 streams in the country that are only temporarily filled with water.
Furthermore, thanks to the regulation of the River Tisza, the level of the groundwater is sinking in the Hungarian Great Plain, because of which large areas of soil dry out. That means that, soon, they will not be able to produce anything for the Hungarian agriculture. And this is how, in the end, the Hungarian Great Plain would become a desert in Central Europe.

The other very problematic factor in this respect is agriculture: the intensive cultivation of the land and the constant use of fertilisers. Mr Lénárd says that in agriculture, local interests always override not only regional but also national interests. For example, after a heavy rain, everybody is interested in getting rid of the huge amount of water that came down. However, they forget that
I agree with Balázs András Lukács, Nature comes first – it was here before we were. The Carpathian Basin is doomed especially Hungary being in the middle. Hungary cannot survive without the surrounding watershed in other countries that took it away in Trianon. They now control the water that Hungary needs to survive. Those jackasses at Trianon had no clue what the hell they were doing when they broke up the most perfect designed Ecosystem in Europe and maybe the world. They put “civilized man” first and NATURE SECOND! Do you think these countries care? They have their fresh water and dump all their trash and sewers into the rivers that go to Hungary. The solution now is to make the Carpathian Basin a UNESCO HERITAGE SITE. It’s the only way Hungary can survive.

NO problem at all. Our Supreme Leader’s divine hand will touch the sand and green pastures surrounded by football stadiums will pop up all over the desert. Have Faith.
