Abstract:
The article discusses issues of forest preservation and
environmental safety in Kazakhstan. The authors conduct a comparative
analysis of forest cover across regions of Kazakhstan, revealing its low
percentage in the Western regions and high in the eastern and southern
regions. The article highlights both man-made and natural risks to the
forest fund of Kazakhstan. The authors argue that fires, caused by both
human activities and natural factors, pose a particular danger to
Kazakhstan. Analysis indicates that the dynamics of fires have been
intensifying since 2018, which naturally disrupts the structure of the area's
biocenosis. Based on the results of the study, conclusions were drawn and
recommendations were made for the conservation of biological diversity.
