Planet Earth is recovering slowly ?

Mar 18, 2020 9 Comments

I am seeing so many benefits to Planet Earth when people are working from home
- 10 million cars leave the road each year (only in NY), that has been reduced to 30% now which in turn reduced the greenhouse gases drastically.
- check out how much fuel consumption you are using / saving in this page - www.fueleconomy.gov
- recently saw that venice canals are crystal clear (unexpected silver linings of coronavirus)
- nitrogen dioxide over china has dropped and in many countries as well
- coal consumption and industrial ops has been reduced to 15-40% in many countries
- pollution monitoring satellites operated by Nasa and the european space agency observed drastic decreases in air pollution across many countries.

and many other unitended climate benefits

should we continue this doing every year ? #remotework #wfh #makethisplanetbetter #cleanair #greenisthenewblack

  • Low consumption societies are poor. Consumption will pick up as soon as this crisis blows over.

  • The virus situation is unfortunate, but this is a lifestyle we must continue to follow to the extent possible.

  • Tired of this shit. Undo the quarantine and shelter in place directives. So many people have lost jobs. Worst affected are the ones who earn the least. This will drive the economy to the ground and millions will suffer for a lifetime - yes, lifetime.

    How long are you going to stay sheltered with the economy in shambles? And if one has that kind of money and resources to stay sheltered for an extended period, just do it. Why drag everyone else down with you?

    Survival of the fittest.
    I'd rather take my chances with CoronaVirus than see the economy in shambles.

    End of rant.

      It’s not about us / pandemic created by this stupid COVID-19. It’s a different topic.
      This is about finding a way to minimize the damage we are doing to planet earth. It’s a moral obligation.

    I have heard that the lack of air travel may actually be worse due to lesser artificial cloud coverage which reflects a lot of sunlight out of the atmosphere.
