Human behavior has a direct and dramatic impact on the environment. With the COVID-19 crisis causing more people to stay home, pollution has been on the temporary decline. One recent example is in India, where for the first time in decades, residents have been able to see the Himalayas due to the reduction in air pollution (according to this CNN article). And while the pandemic has negatively affected so many of us, it has shown the impact that our population can make on our climate.
