"I notice that the earth is somehow 'coming back' to life..."
I've heard that certain types of pollution are going down all over the world thanks to reduced activity. Like in Venice the notoriously unclean waters cleared up and fish are flourishing. In China air pollution is way down too since less people are driving.

However other kinds of pollution are up. Some beaches are getting littered with discarded masks that somehow make it into the ocean for instance.

Interesting times for sure.
