So, in China, carbon dioxide emissions have dropped by as much as 100 million cubic tons in the last two weeks. That's almost six percent of global emissions. The rapid spread of the new coronavirus, which has killed more than 2000 in China and infected over 74,000 people. Environmentalists warn that the reduction is only temporary. "Once the coronavirus has subsided, we are very likely to face increased production that will seek to compensate for the losses," Li Shuo said. Meanwhile, emissions of nitrogen dioxide, a by-product of fossil fuel combustion in vehicles and power plants, fell 36 percent in China the week after New Year's holidays. As for the rest of the world, the situation is quite similar. In most cities, as far as Europe is concerned, people mostly stick to the rules and stay in their homes. The cities are empty but also cleaner. In some countries wild animals are walking the streets, and there are no people at all. The current environmental situation is actually much better than it was, but that can all change. Do you think will the environment become polluted or cleaner?

I think that the pandemic is just a temporary pause in human activities that illicit pollution, this is a good breather though because it can help us reflect on what we should do to address the pollution after this pandemic. I hope this pandemic will serve as a reflection of our character as humanity that lives on this unforgiving planet.

Very true! Though this situation brought a lot of suffering globally, we are seeing the positive impact to our environment. This will give us a reminder that humanity is really causing big trouble to our nature. Though it is only temporary, I hope people will find a way not to contribute pollution when normal situation resumes, even in our own small ways.

Last weekend snow was falling in Tokyo. This is a city that rarely gets snow in actual winter, let alone in spring (Sakura season no less)...
Its like mother nature is jumping from joy for the last couple of months when humans finally decided to give it a rest to polluting. So much useless politician talks and promises and lies for years; but it took a pandemic for humanity to actually stop polluting. Even the ozone layer was reported recovering, just amazing.
This is like an ongoing worldwide experiment: What would happen if humanity decided to stay home for a while? Even the oceans are rapidly recovering their long gone wildlife in some places.

I'm living in the city and rarely see the mountain sides of the province but because a lockdown was implemented, everyone started to see the shapes of the mountain again because there's no air pollution coming from the cars and factories. It became cleaner but this is just a temporary result. Although looking at the brighter side, Ozone layer is recovering. --> https://www.zmescience.com/science/ozone-layer-recovering-2020-1135134/

It is true that there is less movement of vehicles because we are in quarantine and therefore reduces the emission of carbon dioxide that affects the ozone layer of our planet. After Covid19 there will be much to do in Pro to take care of both humanity and the entire planet. We have advanced in technology, but what we are currently experiencing must be extensively reviewed by all governmental entities in the world. I think it should be a great commitment to humanity.

Take rights seriously. Do you trust your mayor with $10,000 of your money, that he should hold it for you while you are gone on vacation? Take the government people to court, and make them prove that CV is a real danger. If they can't or won't, kick them out of government for the way they are playing with your lives.
Take Rights Seriously, Even During a PandemicIn his 2008 book "Taking Rights Seriously," the late professor Ronald Dworkin explored the origins and governmental treatment of human liberty. He argued that Thomas Jefferson – who wrote the Declaration of Independence – and James Madison – the scrivener at the Constitutional Convention and the author of the Bill of Rights – were clear in their articulations that the premise of America at its birth is that our rights are personal and natural because they come from our humanity, not from the government.
Dworkin also recognized that government, which is essentially the negation of liberty, is only moral and valid when it enjoys the consent of the governed, respects individual rights as inalienable and interferes with them only after it proves fault to a jury at a fair trial.
The Dworkin thesis is obviously not novel, but he wrote it toward the end of his illustrious career as a bulwark against those in government and academia who argued to the contrary. These folks claimed – and do so today – that the law is whatever those in power say it is, and the dead hands of the framers cannot control the living hands of those whom the people have elected. To these folks, the majority rules, even when it is tyrannical toward a minority.
This argument – that a popularly elected government can trump individual liberties – is utterly repugnant to the concept of natural rights and accepts as somehow lawful the horrific acts of popularly elected governments for which the 19th and 20th centuries are well known. This view also rejects the plain language and – since 1803 – consistent judicial recognition of the Constitution as the supreme law of the land. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Yes, I agree with you that it should be a great commitment, but let's hope and after the virus will be cleaner and fresher air than it was.

With the present of Corona Virus in all country, the earth is looking clean from the pollution because there is not much activity in each country. Most people stay in their homes. They don't go out if they don't have urgent things. The earth is also healing by itself without any polluted made by the company. The environment where we lived become cleaner than before, so that makes looks healthy.

We had Sahara sand last week over half of Europe. It was never this bad as was now. It is not only pollution that makes people hard to breath. I saw on a gif that middle east was even more affected. But I guess they are more used of it.

this "PANDEMIC" is one of the ways the Earth cleansed itself slightly from pollution.. I live in the city of Jakarta and my city is included in one of the cities with the heaviest levels of pollution in the world. in the last 3 weeks, I have seen traffic jams have greatly diminished and protocol roads appear to be quiet from the vehicle. I think the air in my city will be very clean during this "Pandemic" period..

More importantly this lockdown period helping the ozone layers to get recovered on polar regions and everywhere we can feel less polluted air compared to couple of months back.Anyway as you said things will back into normal once there is a vaccine found for this virus until let the other species of this world to enjoy their life.

That's the positive side, the Earth is healing at our expense we put so many harms in our environment and we have been punished it's more like a reset of our Earth, I hope we should all realize that we should not harm our planet and take care of it including our co-habitat like animals and the trees, if we learn from this the Earth will be better and cleaner.

You've seen a report about the oceans recently? Nope. We delay mass starvation, but we can't stop it.

I don't think that we are going to see a serious decrease in human population due to deaths. In my opinion, the most significant impact that coronavirus is going to bring is that people are going to have some psychological instabilities due to the long period of quarantine that people are forced to do in order to eliminate the infections.

Coronavirus might actually increase population. I mean, if we get into social distancing enough, we will get out into the countryside, and start new cities as the pandemic wears off. We will find that there is much more land around than we thought. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)
