Against the background of the coronavirus epidemic, the environment has improved significantly in most countries of the world.
Despite all the harmful nature for humans, at the same time, COVID-19 has a positive effect on ecology, "rejuvenating" our planet.
Satellites of NASA and the European Space Agency recorded a significant decrease in harmful emissions into the atmosphere and stated that the air became much cleaner in a number of regions. For example, research data has shown that nitrogen dioxide levels have approached the norm over industrial China.
Scientists monitored the situation and announced that the state of ecology has improved in most countries of the world.
There is evidence that this change is due in part to a decline in economic activity as a result of the coronavirus outbreak.
Experts say that the Earth is resting from human influence and returning to normal. A similar clearing of the atmosphere was observed during the 2008 economic crisis. But then the emission reduction was more gradual.
