The biggest positive thing that has happened due to the novel Coronavirus is the clean-up of the Earth. Since most of the world is in lockdown mode, it has made a good effect on the environment. India has been shut down for the last month where no car, no industries, no factories, etc. have been used. This has led to cleaner air and water in India. In this blog, Penguin Tank, a provider of plastic water storage tanks is going to give you a clear picture of how lockdown in India has made the water of the country clean within a few days.

If we look at the rivers of India, it is being said that the river Ganga has become clean in such a way which even the government haven’t been able to do in so many years. The main reason for this is the dumping of toxic materials by the factories without being treated have been stopped. People have stopped using the water for anything else except using it for supplying it to households. Tourism and other cultural activities have been stopped leading to the purification of water of all the rivers. In the river Yamuna, there have been reports of water level rising due to less usage of water for commercial purposes. The condition of all the rivers has changed so drastically that old local people are even saying that these rivers have suddenly gone back to their old self the way it was in their childhood.

Suffice to say, since the water sources have become so clean, it has also changed the current quality of the water that is supplied all over the country. On top of that, the weather in the country has also improved a lot. It is also being predicted that the underground level of the water will increase a lot this year due to heavy rainfall. As we are approaching the monsoon season, due to the absence of emission of carbon dioxide in the air, the air quality has improved too. Due to the shut-down of the industries, cars, and the aviation industry, the release of toxic gas in the air is almost close to none. This, in turn, will bring a lot of rain this monsoon season by improving the environment as a whole.

So, it is quite clear that even though this pandemic is a disaster to humans, but the lockdown has certainly made nature’s life easier. This will ultimately be beneficial to us. For the next year, you will be getting a lot more purified water in the plastic water storage tank of your home.
