Explanation:

The worldwide disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in numerous impacts on the environment and the climate. The considerable decline in planned travel[2] has caused many regions to experience a large drop in air pollution.[3] In China, lockdowns and other measures resulted in a 25 per cent reduction in carbon emissions[4] and 50 per cent reduction in nitrogen oxides emissions,[5] which one Earth systems scientist estimated may have saved at least 77,000 lives over two months.[6][7] Other positive impacts on the environment include governance-system-controlled investments towards a sustainable energy transition and other goals related to environmental protection such as the European Union's seven-year €1 trillion budget proposal and €750 billion recovery plan "Next Generation EU" which seeks to reserve 25% of EU spending for climate-friendly expenditure.[8][9][10]

However, the outbreak has also provided cover for illegal activities such as deforestation of the Amazon rainforest[11][12] and poaching in Africa,[13][14] hindered environmental diplomacy efforts,[15] and created economic fallout that some predict will slow investment in green energy technologies.[16]
