What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Uzbekistan plans to introduce a special environmental regime for greenhouses in Tashkent and five surrounding districts. This regime requires operators to adopt cleaner heating technologies and prohibits the burning of tires, plastics, bitumen, fuel oil, and waste. To support the transition, the government will offer subsidies and preferential loans, and greenhouses currently using solid fuels must switch to approved energy sources by December 1, 2026.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The new regulations aim to reduce air quality issues in the capital, which are worsened by emissions from greenhouse operations during the fall and winter. The incentives provided, including subsidies and loans, support the shift toward cleaner energy sources such as natural gas, solar, and geothermal power.
