Climate Change is a back-burner in most politicians’ minds. World
leaders (with a few exceptions) have limited times in office and this topic is of
least concern to them. The current pandemic has brought the globe to a halt and
stopped many human activities. This brings some reliefs to earth and allows nature
to heal a bit. But it won’t be for long as many nations are now trying to
reopen their borders and resume many human activities to revive their economies.
On the downside, this pandemic also creates more wastes from single-use items
as more people are stuck at home. This is bad news for the environment and
counter-productive to reverse climate change, if any. So, it’s back to square-one!
It can only get worse.
