Nitrogen Dioxide

NO2 is a toxic gas which Comes out from the cars, trucks, factories.

World health organization says that if the concentration of the gas is above 200 micrograms per cubic meter.

Then it can cause inflammation in the breathing pipe of the body and cause the problems like asthma.

Now due to the coronavirus lockdown there is no cars on the roads and the factories are shut down

That’s why the concentration of the Nitrogen Dioxide falls very fastly in the cities of whole world.

China

Italy

India

In the major cities of india the concentration of nitrogen dioxide also falls very fastly.

PM 2.5

It is the one of the most harmful forms of the air pollution.

It comes under the category of group one carcinogen. 

It is so small that it will go to your bloodstream through lungs and it can cause respiratory problems, heart problems and also cause premature death.

It's so deadly that the world health organization estimated that there are 4 million + deaths from PM 2.5 be from heart disease, lungs cancer, lung disease and respiratory infection worldwide every year.

Now due to the lockdown in the whole world The Levels of PM 2.5 falls.

This is the one of the reason that you can able to see the blue sky from the different cities of the world.

This shows that the air Pollution makes a big difference in the beauty of the city but in our country most of the people Don't care about such issues.

Right now some 100 people will stand up to the issue of a mosque and mosque to riot.

But if we talk about the air pollution no one is interested in this issue.

Question

The question will come to your mind that if PM 2.5 levels drop Because of Lockdown, there are so few people, the number of people who were dying due to air pollution will also be reduced, People's life will also be saved due to low air pollution?

In regarding to this a professor of stanford university researches that, 

They collected the data of PM 2.5 from the Chinese cities.

Then they compare it with the mortality rate now they see the impact on mortality rate 

after the research only in the one month of lockdown in china the lockdown saves 77,000 + lives in china by just reducing pollution. It is a very large number that the total deaths in the world from the coronavirus is around 75,000.

water pollution

Not only air the water is also cleaning.

Delhi jal board vice chairman said that due to the stop of the industrial waste water quality in the rivers is also increasing.

The difference you can in the photo’s

Photo Of Yamuna River New Delhi, India

You can compare it with the previous photos available on internet.

The photos are showing the future potentials

That if the government will built the sewage treatment plants properly and built strong regulations for the industries and the companies that they should treat their own waste.

So it can happen.

Not only Yamuna, ganga river is also improving its water quality, 

A professor from IIT BHU said that there is 40-50% improvement in the water quality of Ganga river.

#opinion

We should implement lockdown for one week every year so that the whole public of the country also Understand how clean and clear the air can be.

Have a glimpse of a potential that our country can reach.

What do you think about it write down in comments

Wildlife

There is huge impact of lockdown on wildlife,

There are many videos are viral on social media that the animals which was usually not seen on the roads because the roads are empty. 

There are many fake videos are also available because in the sense that the usually the animals are not come on the roads.

we can see that people cannot observe the wild life now they can observe the wild life because the roads are empty.

This is also a good thing that the people are observing there biodiversity.

climate change / CO2

We all know that due to the climate change the CO2 gas is responsible. 

If we saw the data from which the carbon dioxide emissions came then there is huge contribution from the transportation sector.

Now due to the lockdown there is fall in all these things that there are less cars on the roads and less planes are flying in the air space.

We can see that there is a huge fall in carbon dioxide emissions

Experts predicts that the after the world war 2 this is the biggest fall in carbon emission approximately 5 %.

Now we came to the bad news that first saw the chart below –

Last 60 Years CO2 Emission

This is the chart of the previous 60 years of world carbon emissions

We can see that every year the carbon emission increasing every year due to which the climate change becomes worst.

Drops Of CO2

If we see the drops

In 2008 crisis then the carbon emission go down, 

A drop came in Asian financial crisis 

And a drop came when USSR falls, 

A drop came when first and second oil crisis cames then the carbon emissions goes down.

any many more you can see in graph

pattern observation

If we notice the pattern then the pattern is that 

whenever a economy crashes then the carbon emissions goes down 

Then this is a good news for the environment.

Unfortunately there is a inverse relation between economy and environment.

Economy = 1 / ecology

When ever economy goes down this is good for environment and whenever economy goes up this is bad for environment.Why is this happening?

Because the economy is highly interlinked with the fossil fuels, 

when transportations are not working and whenever less electricity is needed to world then the carbon emissions goes down.

Whenever lockdowns are suspended carbon emissions again goes up.

In china there are 25% fall in carbon emissions in the month of February ,

In the month of last march and april there NO2 and CO2 levels goes up to the level before lockdown.

Is there an opportunity?

In this economic crisis major of the industries are closed, 

most of the people are jobless 

now this opportunity can be used by the government to push renewable industries. 

When the government give money to the industries to revive then the government can mainly focus on the renewable energy.

Don't focus too much on oil industries

All the positive effects in this blog post are temporary,

After the suspension of lockdown all the situations goes back,

Now, in these days you can see the open sky and the night starts enjoy all these things.
