Indirect Impact of Covid-19 Lockdown On Society And Environment

Abstract

In a fairly short time, the worldwide spread of COVID-19 has brought a dramatic reduction in industrial activities, road traffic and tourism. During this time of crisis restrained human interaction with nature has appeared as a blessing for nature and the environment. Reports from around the world indicate that environmental conditions, including air quality and water quality in rivers, are improving after the COVID-19 outbreak, and wildlife is blooming. India has always been a pollution hub with enormous populations. But since COVID-19 announced the lockdown, air quality has begun to improve and all other environmental parameters such as water quality in rivers have begun to offer a positive sign of restoration.
