At first glance, it may seem as though the corona virus leads to a reduction in climate change. However, if the corona virus escalates to a worldwide pandemic, an economic recession would likely follow it. An economic recession would reduce monetary funds allocated towards climate conservation attempts.

Additionally, the success of the Paris Agreement - an agreement under the United Nations - has been interrupted by COVID-19. Crucial negotiations that have been scheduled were cancelled following the outbreak. Furthermore, the corona virus may divert the public's attention from climate change, depressing political will at important moments.

Although the corona virus is currently affecting more than the climate of our world, it is essential that we understand the consequences that come about as a result of the virus.
