Global green economic recovery support after COVID-19 2020
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the global economy was devastated. However, the virus indirectly impacted the environment, causing record emission reductions around the world. As global governments decide on post COVID-19 economic recovery plans, opportunities have arisen to introduce measures that will benefit the environment, and prioritize the climate crisis.

India was hit hard by the virus, but it also saw carbon emissions drop for the first time in four decades.
