Emission levels are lower because of the COVID-19 pandemic, but the World Meteorological Organization says that 'does not mean much' for the bigger picture of climate change

GENEVA, SWITZERLAND -- Though factories have shut, planes have been grounded and cars left in the garage, the coronavirus pandemic is having very little impact on climate change, the World Meteorological Organization said Wednesday.

"The pandemic will be over at some point and the world will start going back to work and with that, the CO2 emissions will pick up again, maybe or maybe not to quite the same level."

Good. Melt this motherfucker

Are you reading the comments, CTV? No one is buying your climate crisis garbage

Always looking for the negative.

So mass unemployment, poverty and economic collapse reduce GHGE. Finally people get to see what it will take.

So all this low pollution worldwide doesnt make a difference but me having to pay for bags at the grocery store does

A carbon tax scam that Trudeau rammed down our throats is not going to lower emissions

April fools.

Almost as if humans aren’t responsible climate change in the first place

Quit this fear about climate change

True. 100+ years of emissions won't be reversed in months

You people ( I can say 'you people' since you can'T fire me ) .... So, « YOU PEOPLE from CTV » have no other subject to talk about than climate changes ? Pathetic.

Here's an idea, stick your climate change crap up yourass. We actually have a real emergency not a fake one.

Every little bit helps. How about pointing out some positives for an change.

India's coronavirus lockdown is having a dramatic impact on pollutionWhen India imposed a nationwide lockdown a week ago, it was designed to stop the imminent spread of the novel coronavirus. But grinding this country of 1.3 billion people to a near halt has also provided a temporary remedy to suffocating pollution levels. Any word on their problems with tuberculosis and malaria? So you just figured out industry creates pollution? Good for you! CNN of the North. CDNS as of today have carbon tax doubled, and our MPs are accepting a pay raise. Temporary virus mitigation to air pollution in all countries, but only in a Socialist Dictatorship citizens are treated with disregard. Immigration quota, asylum seekers incoming.
