Abstract

Climate change is not globally evenly and affects some regions more than others. Climate change over the past 20 years has affected the environment. The consequences of climate change for tourism in the countries of the Danube region are inevitable. The region will face consequences. There will be gradual changes. In the future, the countries of the Danube region will be forced to make more use of the non-main tourist season. The southern regions have already faced a significant drop in tourist demand. The article considers the main causes of climate change and environmental degradation in the region under consideration (rivers dry up and become shallow, the Dniester dries up, soils turn from chernozems into a desert). As a result we meet the deterioration of the harvest, grain and bread prices have already increased this summer. The most likely prospects and activities in the countries of the Danube region to improve the situation are considered.
