Maybe Humans are the Virus and Corona is the Cure



Having seen so much documentary movies for years and years, I could only see Corona as a cure for what we are doing to the Planet and ourselves.

While all the environmentalists, Green activists, Planet lovers are trying hard to change our disastrous course by
  • trying to convince Political leaders to make Green policies
  • raise awareness among the Public
  • innovate on green technologies
  • establish green business and Industries,
  • reducing their own emissions in their personal lives
and still failing miserably, Here comes Corona which has turned the world upside down in a Quarter, reducing global consumption rates.

For decades, Scientists are crying out load that `Business as usual` is killing the planet and we took very very less effort to address that. But Corona enforced us to put a hold to the `Business as usual`.

I am not sure for how long this will long, but I think we should take this as an opportunity to take a break, look back at our established system, life styles, attitude towards everything and see how we could transform them to make things more sustainable.
