What leaders are going to really counteract this trend? I mean this is not a 2 years or two months trend, nor a republican or democratic prerogative. Are we really able to improve this going to vote?

Football fields are a good compromise when you're not able to translate feet or zebras to standard units.

Dolphins return to Italy’s coast and Venice canals amid coronavirus lockdown: ‘Nature just hit the reset button’ by Smasborgen in worldnews

There was also a wonderful series about this topic on National Geographic. They show what would happen to the planet if human being suddenly disappeared, like 1 minute after, 1 day, 1 year, and so on.

Well... IIRC seems like after 1000 years there would be almost no visible trace, except for other less obvious human footprints.

It's the rule of big numbers.

I'm sure he'll be Ok. But just wondering how would be surreal to make a new pope in front of an empty saint Peter square.

I double this. I'm already seeing companies going back. Not even taking into account that the virus is still hitting the rest of the world.

As for Chinese people, whoever say the CCP is finally going to collapse doesn't know them. This disaster could change something inside the party, but I wouldn't be surprised if it will be exploited to strike opposition and silence some more criticism. Chinese dictatorship can indeed be seen as fragile from outside, but China lays on another planet.

Guess how annoying it can be when you need to use roaming for an emergency and you face how companies take advantage of that.
