Since the Coronavirus pandemic began, earth has become a 

quieter place.  

With so many human beings in quarantine, all over the planet, 

wild animals are enjoying a quieter experience of life. 

Whales and dolphins can communicate by echolocation with less interference from large ships.

Air quality is much better. 

In China, 

"The cleaner air could lead to a brief respite in parts of the world with severe air pollution even as they battle the coronavirus. According to an analysis by Marshall Burke, a professor in Stanford’s Earth-system science department, a pandemic-related reduction in particulate matter in the atmosphere—the deadliest form of air pollution—likely saved the lives of 4,000 young children and 73,000 elderly adults in China over two months this year." 1
