Indirect effects of COVID-19 on the environment.
TL;DR: The research shows that there is a significant association between contingency measures and improvement in air quality, clean beaches and environmental noise reduction, and decreasing GHG concentrations during a short period is not a sustainable way to clean up the environment.

Environmental effects of COVID-19 pandemic and potential strategies of sustainability.
Tanjena Rume,S. M.Didar Ul Islam +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the positive and negative environmental impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, by reviewing the available scientific literatures and suggest that the pandemic situation significantly improves air quality in different cities across the world, reduces GHGs emission, lessens water pollution and noise, and reduces the pressure on the tourist destinations, which may assist with the restoration of the ecological system.

The environmental impacts of pollutants generated by routine shipping operations on ports
Adolf K.Y. Ng,Su Song +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose an economic model and calibrating it to the Port of Rotterdam to assess the environmental impact costs generated by routine shipping operations on ports and provide a decent framework for further research in sustainable shipping and port management for future generations.
