COVID-19 Drops Air Pollution & Autism Awareness Month

Tyrell Ventura of, "Watching the Hawks," on RT America, does an excellent job at bringing out some positives of the Covid-19. One, being, a drop in air pollution and pollution in general. According to the World Health Organization, 8.8 million deaths annually can be attributed to air pollution related causes. 8.8 million! That is a staggering number and far more fatalities than the Covid-19 will cause.



He points out that reducing our normal human activities, such as driving, is really helping to bring down pollution levels in Asia and in Europe. 



I feel, people, ought be most alarmed, at the death rate from air pollution alone. After the greater part of the Covid-19 finally slows down, it would be a very good time, to reflect, on how we can continue, to bring pollution, overall lower and lower.



Reflection, during a time of panic and isolation for many, is something that I think the entire world, could benefit from. Reflection, of our own selves and the part we play in the world and how we can play a better part. Reflection, of just what kind of world we are living in and that it truly could be a better world for all.



He also brighten up with how many people are dealing with the isolation, through music and song. He talks about a great victory for the Lakota Tribe and the DAPL Pipeline, and autism.



Tyrell, for me, is a man of deep compassion and dignity, and he reflects that so much, in the episode of ¨Watching the Hawks.¨
