Good Effect Of Lockdown
Amidst the corona virus pandemic, which emerged in China in December of last year (already 4 months!), many countries implemented lockdown measures in hopes of slowing down the curve of infections.
This has also had the inadvertent effect of giving the planet a much-needed breather. For centuries, humans have carried out activity, ignorant of or uncaring about the detrimental impact on their surroundings. “The human footprint has become so very big, there is no room for other creatures to live.”
But now, as more than one-third of the world is cautioned to remain home, in just some weeks of human inactivity, many stories of the planet’s other inhabitants have surfaced, showing us how immensely beneficial this break has been, not just for the animals but also for Mother Earth.
Though this would not be a sustainable, long-term solution, these positive outcomes show us that a pollution-free earth is indeed possible. This crisis has presented us with an opportunity to not only take a look at ourselves but to identify how we will choose to walk on this planet going forward.
