He said, many countries were closed during World War II. Market, transportation, industry, factories were all closed. In such a situation, pollution in the air was reduced. Now the same thing is being seen once again.
However, he expressed disappointment that this happiness is temporary. As soon as the lockdown ends, we will all be forced to live in the same mess once again. Earth will once again be forced to breathe in polluted air. In such a situation, it is necessary to reduce it gradually.
