What is Corona Virus?

Every single day, we all are listening and seeing the effect of coronavirus throughout the globe, across all the communication channels,

no single country is left behind from the ill effect of coronavirus.

The count of Corona infected persons are increasing drastically and the worst thing is that the world still doesn’t have the antidote of this COVID-19,

which made the whole world to go into the pause mode, where apart from the essential works, rest everything is being stopped for more than a month now.

According to Doctors, there are four types of influenza viruses which are
A, B, C, and D. where Type A and B are the human influenza viruses which cause seasonal epidemics of disease, type C causes mild illness, and type D prominent in cattle’s.

The name Corona comes from its crown-like structure, Coronavirus is also an influenza virus which is getting transmitted from human to human by contact, droplets, and fomites.

How Human is getting affected? (Social V/s Social Distancing)

The burst of Coronavirus become a pandemic and spread across 213 countries, which we all know that it started from china (un-cleared origin) and got spread to the whole world and had changed the way of living, the lifestyle for billions of people across the globe.
From our school days, we have studied and witness that we human beings are the social animals and can’t live alone, we need society, a family, a companion and many friends in our life to talk, to share feelings and emotions among themselves.

This social nature makes a normal person to meet and interact with at least 30,000 new people in his/her lifespan of 70 years, by just assuming that the person is meeting only one new person a day.
This number varies from person to person because some people interact more easily but we all love to meet and greet our loved ones daily.

But of sudden, one fine day, one order comes and tells that from today onwards you can’t meet the persons, you can’t shake your hands, you can’t hug the person, you can’t come out from your home,

avoid the touch of other people, be at some distance at least a meter away from the same person with whom you were meeting, hugging till yesterday.

For all this cant’s, a new word introduced in your life is called social distancing, which is new and could be a bit unrealistic for most of us, but we are bound and should follow the given orders to be safe and let other be safe too.

The positive side of Corona

How do you make this statement, don’t you see anything positive about corona?
Do you also think that there couldn’t be anything positive about this pandemic COVID-19, when everything is getting forcefully stopped and the world is pushed into the recession phase may be the biggest economic recession, mankind had ever faced, bigger than world wars times?

The good thing about humans is we live with hope or you can say the whole world lives with this powerful word Hope,

a hope that tomorrow will be better than today, it also depends upon the attitude and the way of approach, the mindset of tackling the problems.

Indycult sees some positivity in this downside of the century.
As you know, Indycult believes in Nature and works towards the betterment of our mother earth by contributing towards the social causes and issues which are related to pollutions of our society so that we can live and give a healthy pollution-free country to our offspring.

As you know that, Indycult-The Art Studio, Bangalore, recycles waste materials and makes all new, upcycled, creative, daily use products either from paper or the other waste materials and plants a tree for each of their art lovers.

Indycult believes that recycling of waste materials and planting trees is helping them in not only reducing today’s pollution but also creating a greener tomorrow.

Earth is a home for more than 8.7 Million species and most of them are inter-dependent to each other and are the part of this diverse ecological food chain,

what so ever their size and quantity are, we human which holds the position on the top of the food chain thinks that this planet only belongs to them and keep on exploiting nature and its resources.

Air Quality Index:

AQI is the parameter by which we measure the Co2 and other harmful substances present in the air which is not good to inhale, at present the world is living at 408 ppm (parts per million)
which should be below 50 ppm, which is the highest for 8Lacs years.
There are websites available which show the AQI of different cities of India on a real-time basis,
you know, just before the Lockdown, it was showing almost all the cities above the permissible limits but now almost all cities are in Green color which means the quality of air got improved significantly.
I believe this is the purest natural oxygen we millennial and the young generation would be inhaling in our lifetime. Just think about the condition of birds and other animals too.

River’s Water Quality Index:

In Indian culture, we respect and treat most of our rivers as mothers and believe that a single dip in their holy water will take all our sorrow and sins,
but this practice makes the river water polluted, apart from this the major reason of water pollution is mixing of factories’ waste materials into the rivers, you see, most of the big cities are based on the bank of some rivers and
they discharge their harmful waste into the rivers which directly impacts the aquatic animals’ lives.

Due to the Lockdown, all factories are got shut down, the police are not allowing anyone to take a bath in rivers which left the river independent and clean and clear.

Noise Pollutions:

Do you also hear bird’s sounds, Dogs barking more clearly these days?

If yes, then the reason is Lockdown, India is in Lockdown stage from the last 21 days, where all the modes of transportation are stopped as of now,

Indian Railway which runs more than 20000 trains daily which had never stopped even the time of wars are now in idle state, 10 million trucks which roam around the clock on highways are standstill, 30 million private cars which run on city roads are being parked,

All-Big, Medium, Small factories, and companies are being shut, No social gathering, no music concerts are happening these days, 99% of Indians are sitting inside their home.

All these factors are helping in reducing noise pollution,
so be at home enjoy this peaceful, clean, pure time with your family.

We know that the above paragraphs which are written on how mother earth is rejuvenating and recovering herself from all the harms

which mankind has given, knowingly or unknowingly will not last for a long time because as the days will get normal, people will return to their normal schedule, the condition will become the same, the same pollutions will be all around us.

so if you are happy with this recent environment’s healthily condition and wish the same pollution-free society always, then
