The planet has started to heal because of the economic changes that took place beginning at the outbreak of the coronavirus disease. However, continuous environmental healing depends on how countries will adapt their practices according to the new normal.
This is what United Nations Environment Programme Goodwill Ambassador Antoinette Taus said in her interview with CNN Philippines on Tuesday night.
“At the moment, the environment is healing. But it is not something that will continue if we do not actually change our ways permanently, if we do not do business unusual. If we do not transition to the new normal.”Taus also stressed that losing lives amid the pandemic is not something to celebrate even though it has caused the earth to heal.
