Answer:
The worldwide disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in numerous effects on the environment and the climate. The global reduction in modern human activity such as the considerable decline in planned travel[2] was coined anthropause[3] and has caused a large drop in air pollution and water pollution in many regions.[4] In China, lockdowns and other measures resulted in a 25 percent reduction in carbon emissions[5] and 50 percent reduction in nitrogen oxides emissions,[6] which one Earth systems scientist estimated may have saved at least 77,000 lives over two months.[7][8] Other positive effects 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.[9][10][11]
Images from the NASA Earth Observatory show a stark drop in pollution in Wuhan, when comparing NO2 levels in early 2019 (top) and early 2020
(bottom).[1]
However, the outbreak has also provided cover for illegal activities such as deforestation of the Amazon rainforest[12][13] and poaching in Africa,[14][15] hindered environmental diplomacy efforts,[16] and created economic fallout that some predict will slow investment in green energy technologies.[17]
