On the one hand, a pandemic has caused enormous damage to the economy, but on the other hand, a pandemic has greatly benefited nature. Because of isolation, people stopped littering, lighting a fire in nature, and so on. In short, the pandemic allowed nature to recover.
I know its not about economy, but I want to clear things out.
It didn't help nature that much, chances are our bad impact is the same if not bigger.
It may seem things are better because a) water is clearer b) air looks and smells clearer.
But its only because people has stopped pumping the dust in the air/water and thats it.
We still continue to pollute the earth in many ways and couple months of not even a break but a pause won't give the effect everyone is talking about.
