Abstract:
In the context of integration into the European Union, for the period until 2030,
one of the priority tasks for our country is sustainable water resources management. At
the same time, one of the main tasks of sustainable water resources management is to
ensure their ecological component and rational use.
The main environmental problem that has become widespread in the 21st century
not only in Ukraine, but also throughout the planet is eutrophication of water bodies of
various types. Thus, eutrophication is understood as a natural phenomenon that is
accompanied by a complete change in the color of water, the cause of which is the mass
reproduction of algae in the water body. Statistical data show that manifestations of
eutrophication have become widespread on different continents. Thus, in Africa, the
phenomenon of "blooming" of water is observed in 28% of water bodies; in South
America - 41%; North America - 48%; Europe - 53%; the highest figure in Asia - 54%.
