چکیده مقاله:

The worldwide disruption caused by the corona virus pandemic has resulted in numerous effects on the environment and climate. The global reduction in modern human activity such as the considerable decline in planned travel was coined anthrop use and has caused a large drop in air pollution and water pollution in many regions. Up to ۲۰۲۰ year, increase in the amount of greenhouse gases produced since the beginning of the industrialization era caused average global temperatures on the Earth to rise, causing effects including the melting of glaciers and rising sea levels. The pandemic has also provided cover for illegal activities such as deforestation of the Amazon rainforest and poaching in Africa, hindered environmental diplomacy efforts, and created economic fallout that some predict will slow investment in green energy technologies and researchers argued that reduced economic activity would help decrease global warming as well as air and marine pollution, allowing the environment to slowly flourish. Due to the pandemic's impact on travel and industry, many regions and the planet as a whole experienced a drop in air pollution. Reducing air pollution can reduce both climate change and corona virus but it is not yet clear which types of air pollution are common risks to both climate change and corona virus. A study published in May ۲۰۲۰ found that the daily global carbon emissions during the lockdown measures in early April fell by ۱۷% and could lead to an annual carbon emissions decline of up to ۷%, which would be the biggest drop since World War II according to the researchers. They ascribe these decreases mainly to the reduction of transportation usage and industrial activities. However, it has been noted that rebounding could diminish reductions due to the more limited industrial activities. Nevertheless, societal shifts caused by the corona virus lockdowns, like widespread telecommuting, adoption of remote work policies, and the use of virtual conference technology may have a more sustained impact beyond the short-term reduction of transportation usage. The global outbreak of corona virus disease ۲۰۱۹ is affecting every part of human lives, including the physical world. The measures taken to control the spread of the virus and the slowdown of economic activities have significant effects on the environment. Therefore, this study intends to explore the positive and negative environmental impacts of the corona virus pandemic, by reviewing the available scientific literatures
