There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Yes, and I think it does speak to our trading and type of energy consumption. Venice still uses a lot of powered boats for fishing and trading, and with decreased use of those two, more fish started appearing. China's case is the closing down of many factories and some power generational facilities (a lot of which relies on coal).
If anything is gained from this outbreak, it will be:
Greater recognition of human impact on our natural surroundings, as seen in China/Italy.
Greater transition into cleaner energies, natural gas, nuclear, and renewables with greater incentives for investment.
UBI and other economy-boosting basic income implementations will become more popular, especially for lower-income people and those with retail or service jobs.
Working-from-home will become more popular for those that can.
And perhaps (and this just my biased side speaking here), businesses will be incentivized to allow workers own a greater proportion and control of the business rather than the CEO itself.
