Construcțiile distrug lacul Balaton. 700.000 de români merg anual în Ungaria, mare parte la Balaton • Newsweek România
Construction activities around Lake Balaton are harming the ecosystem, according to Dr. Gábor Vasas from the Balaton Limnological Research Institute. He highlighted a new apartment building project that is replacing a previously free beach area. Additionally, extreme heat this summer has raised water temperatures to nearly 30 °C, causing significant ecological changes, including increased algae growth throughout the lake. This situation is alarming, especially as 700,000 Romanians visit Balaton annually, raising concerns about the lake's health and sustainability.
