If anything, I think this highlights one of the key arguments in the climate change debate. There was never much of an argument that dramatically reducing emissions would improve air quality and the environment. That part is obvious. A big argument against doing it was that to get to the kinds of reductions necessary to make a noticeable improvement you'd basically have to run the economy off a cliff by shutting down or eliminating huge sections of it. The benefits are not worth global economic ruin.
I think that argument is definitely being proven true right now. This is, essentially, a test run for what the Green New Deal types have been clamoring for — reduced air travel, reduced vehicle emissions and oil production, farm production slowing down, etc. So, yeah, the air is cleaner. Great. We can all breathe a little bit better, if not easier, while enjoying Great Depression 2.

And while you'd likely get universal agreement that the planet was "dirtier" before than it is now, you will not get universal agreement that the "dirt" was changing the climate. Don't think those minds are changing.

On a side note, happened to be watching CNNi last night (the international version). Didn't even dawn on me until they started posting world temperatures . . . in Celsius. Anyway, they were showing an air quality graphic of several cities, labeled from 1 (Good) to 5 (Dangerous). Los Angeles was a 4. Maybe it was counting virus droplets.

That is more spin than reality. Nobody is saying we should live this way by choice. The point was that a significant impact can be made in a short period of time, so it is worth making smaller changes that could improve things.

Well, yes, you are always going to find people that ignore science. We're seeing that with the reaction to COVID 19, too.

Yeah, I'd rather have a clean planet than hedge fund managers being worth 10 billion. And nail salons staying open.
