In Europe ,too,Quarantine measures are a double blow both by limiting the risk of transmission between
individuals but also by reducing pollution, in particular to fine particles from road traffic.

With the coronavirus, people
started using greenhouse gases less.
And you know that greenhouse
gases have an important role in
climate change. Here are a few
researches and analysis on the
changes of greenhouse gases
emission after coronavirus. Prof.
Dr. Mikdat Kadıoğlu said “Since
we stay at home and wash hands
often, water consumption will
increase and this will affect drought
negatively. But reducing
greenhouse gases was effective in
improving air quality.
Even if we don't use greenhouse gases all
over the world at the moment, the effect of
existing ones would continue for 100-200
years”. So personal behaviour really isn't
going to fix the carbon emission problem.
We need a systematic
change in how energy is
generated and
transmitted.” According to
Carbon Brief analysis
showed that the crisis
temporarily cut CO2
emissions in China by 25%,
with emissions still below
normal more than two
months after the country
entered lockdown. So
coronavirus reduces climate
change, but we need to
change our energy sources
to stop it.

The world was against epidemics many times that will change the
course of history. In addition to changing the course of history, these
epidemic diseases took the lives of most people. People took
precautions against these epidemics, but sometimes it was too late. If i
had to give an example about the causing the death of many people, i
can say black death which is occurred between 1347-1351 and killed
about 25 million people. And also i can say spanish flu which is death
cause of about 50 million person. It was caused by an outbreak of an
H1N1 virus that infects 500 million people or a third of the world's
population. Such diseases always occur in the world but if we know
how to protect ourselves ,people that we love and the world, we can
survive with less loss. Today we are against a virus that called covid-
19. Things are changed in this process. Such as in Turkey activity of
shopping malls decreased %75. And electricity consumption is
decreased. Persons are staying at home and this effects air pollution in
the world therefore there is a connection between air pollution and
coronavirus.
