Abstract

AbstractThe whole world is facing climate change, and many countries are facing the global epidemic of COVID-19. Human beings need to take proactive actions to deal with both COVID-19 and climate change problems, but they cannot take measures at the desired time. This paper will find a relationship between the climate change problem and the COVID-19 problem and a sustainable solution. This paper will be a review-based paper in which different news articles and previous studies review to attain research objectives. The research's nature will be descriptive and exploratory because the researcher describes the COVID-19 epidemic and explores its link with the climate change problem. The research data has taken from secondary sources. This paper's findings suggest that lockdown be the short-term solution to the COVID-19 problem, but it will halt the nation's economy in the longer term. Due to lockdown, there is a reduction in pollution level, which is beneficial for the climate change problem. The researchers have observed certain similarities in curbing climate change and the COVID-19 problem. The pollution level of water, air, and soil pollution decreased. Still, in the longer term, nations need to find other solutions for dealing with COVID-19, which can be beneficial for the economy.Subject Classification: 92-XX91B32Keywords: COVID-19Climate changeLockdownCoronaSustainability
