One of the urgent problems of humanity is global warming. The paper focuses on the Karakalpakstan Republic adjacent to the Aral Sea. Its drying up caused by human activity has significantly contributed to the emergence of extreme climatic conditions that are also manifested in neighbouring countries. The region characterized by extreme continentality and the effects of cold, heat and drought can be described as a laboratory of future environmental development with a significant impact on the quality of life of its inhabitants. The article evaluates the spatial differentiation of environmental indicators of residents' quality of life in the Karakalpakstan Republic districts as part of Uzbekistan. Considering the extreme climatic conditions not only in this part of Uzbekistan, adjacent to the Aral Sea, but also in neighbouring countries and the urgency of solving the problem of climate change eroding the environmental quality of life, it is proposed to create. When evaluating the quality of life, 10 indicators were selected, which were measured by district. The indicators of the districts were compared with the average indicators of Karakalpakstan. The districts were then ranked and divided into high, medium and low levels. Takhiatash and Turtkul districts are rated as less affected by environmental factors and have a higher quality of life than other districts
