The level of air pollution over China has decreased.
New satellite images released by NASA show that this coronavirus ☣ has a positive effect on the environmental situation in China.
Coronavirus still poses a threat to the entire world’s population, but the epidemic is also having a positive impact on the state of the environment of the Chinese state.
New satellite images NASA show that the level of air pollution in China has decreased sharply since the outbreak of the epidemic.
