COVID-19: Lock-down and It’s Positive effects on the environments.




COVID-19: Lock-down and It’s Positive effects on the environments.”

“Go Corona Go…!”

        COVID-19 is the infectious disease caused by the most recently discovered corona virus. This new virus and disease were unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. COVID-19 is now a pandemic affecting many countries globally.

       The corona virus pandemic has caused a global reduction in economic activity and although this is major cause for concern, the ramping down of human activity appears to have had a positive impact on the environment. Industrial and transport emissions and effluents have reduced, and measurable data supports the clearing of pollutants in the atmosphere, soil and water.

       “This is one of the Challenging phase in our life. We need to follow safety rule and Guideline of the government and WHO.”

       Still every cloud has a silver lining and just like that the Lock-down also seems to have a brighter side to it, while we all are aware about disturbing effect of Corona Virus, but each Coin has two sides. It also has many unexpected positive effects on the Environment.

      Air Pollution levels are falling drastically. The sky is so clear and smog free. That’s why we are now able to spot a greater number of stars as than usual. Breathing has become easier because of the cleaner pollution free air. There is significant decrease in nitrogen dioxide, carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide. The pollution of the New York has reduced by more than 50%. After the lockdown for the first time in 30 years Himanchal Pradesh, dhauladhar mountain range has become visible from 125 miles. But thanks to lock down the smog is reducing rapidly.

  Ecosystem is thriving again, since year we have been Hunting and caging the animals and birds for fun now the nature has given them the chance to roam freely, while we people on these earths are caged in our own house due to lockdown. Due to reduced noise pollution people are waking up with sweet chirping of the birds, meanwhile viral social media post started a pop up wildlife sighting in urban areas claiming.

An "unprecedented" ozone depletion in the northern hemisphere has healed, but unlikely due to the impacts of worldwide coronavirus lockdowns, scientists say. The hole had been about three times the size of Greenland.

       Water bodies have also been clearing and the rivers Yamuna and Ganga have seen significant improvement since the enforcement of a nationwide lock down. According to the real-time water monitoring data of the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), the average water quality of 27 points of the Ganga seen in recent days, is suitable for bathing and propagation of wildlife and fisheries.

In conclusion,

        The takeaway from this is that once nations come to grips with the corona-virus, better implementation of the environmental, transport and industry regulations should be considered a priority to ease the detrimental impacts of human activity on the environment.

 “It’s not all about perfect,
It’s about Efforts,
And when you bring that
Efforts every single day
That’s where transformation happens
That’s how change occurs”.

Stay home, Stay Safe…!
