4 April 2020| New Scientist| 11 hard for the UK and other nations to conduct diplomacy to elicit more ambitious carbon-cutting plans from countries ahead of November’s UN climate summit, says Tubiana. Those plans are crucial for closing the gap between the catastrophic 3 C-plus of warming we are on track for and the 1.5 C limit. Further environmental impacts from the pandemic might seem trivial but could still be significant, says Bruyninckx. One is a reduction in noise pollution for millions of people. The other is an easing of the stress on water supplies in some areas because of less tourism and industrial activity. By comparison, any extra water consumption from handwashing to tackle the virus will be negligible, says Bruyninckx. In Venice, the canals may simply be clearer because boats aren’t stirring up sediment from the city’s lagoon and canals. Without measurement, it is impossible to say if water quality is better, says Davide Tagliapietra at the Institute of Marine Sciences, Venice. Farming may yet be affected by the pandemic too. In the UK, the National Farmers’ Union says there has been no intensification of food production to make up for a slowing of imports. But growers who rely on seasonal workers to pick fruit and vegetables are “extremely concerned” about recruiting them this year, with the risk of food going to waste. Whatever the crisis’s lasting environmental impact, Figueres says one lesson is the reminder that prevention is better than cure. That is true for both planetary and human health, she says.“We are better off preventing the worst impacts of climate change, rather than trying to deal with what will become unmanageable consequences.”❚
