Impact of the Pandemic on the Environment

The presentation talked about the impact of COVID-19 on various walks of our lives, with focus on understanding why the situation is so alarming. The main objective of the project was to acknowledge the role of greenhouse emissions and the rise in the use of medical waste and single-use plastics. The pandemic has helped reduce the greenhouse emissions by a significant amount. But on the other hand it has led to a drastic increase in medical-waste and single use plastic generation.
