You See Me, You See Me Not - Masked Effects on An Environment Tangled in COVID-19

It has taken decades of awareness through various means, to teach people about the environmental implications of their actions and convince them to take measures internationally, nationally and personally towards its protection. But the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic- described by UNFPA as the fastest moving global crisis in a century-has been causing unprecedented health and socioeconomic challenges. Whilst the virus takes over the world, countries have been trying to adapt to the post-Corona world and boost their fallen economies and lift social systems. With so much to be convalesced, our environment finds itself entirely removed from the list of injured. There are many who believe that the environment actually got an opportunity to recuperate from years of damage, due to lesser human interference during COVID-19 lockdowns and restrictions. 
 
This article seeks to prove this belief only illusionary and picks out some tremendously important issues that are misunderstood as fortunate, underestimated as unimportant, and most of all, left unnoticed. These environmental concerns affecting land, water, air and all of life, are of colossal gravity and must be tackled against the clock. Acknowledging that environment is the last thing that governments have on their minds now, this piece strives to draw attention to the maleficent impact of the ‘new normal’ on Earth, through statistics from various countries across the world. It brings to notice the direct and many indirect effects the advent of COVID-19 has brought and will bring to our environment. Addressing numerous serious problems ranging from an increase in carbon print to overpopulation, it offers plausible solutions to ensure that all is not lost in the blink of an eye. There are many exploiting the world’s changed focus and operate full freedom to perpetrate illegalities. With the coming years stripping every last resource on our planet to recoup losses that the virus has caused, our environment must be protected before it reaches the point of destruction we predicted much later in time. Thus, this research attempts to give clarity to many things that that our distracted vision is masked by.
