Countries in Central Asia, which are highly vulnerable to climate change, experience a variety of health-related impacts to which they must adapt. At the same time, climate mitigation interventions in the health sector in the form of reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions may also generate co-benefits.

Soil desiccation is an important process that happens mainly in semi-arid regions especially in Central Asia. Soil desiccation leads to higher loss of moisture at shallower depths and also deeper penetration of water, which ultimately reduces water availability and hence impacts the growth of plants for the application of agriculture and green infrastructures. Therefore, minimizing soil desiccation will help maintain higher water availability for plants for agricultural productivity and green infrastructure in Central Asian Region.

The article aims to trigger the discussion on one of the most pressing issues of modern power-related legislation extremely important for the further development of the power sector of the Republic of Tajikistan and other states possessing significant hydropower potential. In particular, the article raises the problem of the unsoundness of the generally recognized perception of large-scale hydroelectric power plants (HPPs) as not belonging to renewable sources of energy.
