Pollution has dropped dramatically, but I haven't seen environmentalists rejoicing. You'd think they would be happy about the climate catching a break.

So I guess they were hoping for the environmental problems to be magically fixed then, cuz this is about as good as it can get when it comes to reducing pollution.

It would be insensitive to celebrate the reduction of pollution vocally when the cost is the excruciating death of thousands and thousands of people.

Anyways I've seen a few pieces on the number of lives saved by this most recent reduction but all of them seem to avoid the air of celebration out of common sense.

The Trump administration introduced this week a sweeping relaxation of environmental laws and fines during the coronavirus pandemic. According to new guidelines from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), companies will largely be exempt from consequences for polluting the air or water during the outbreak.

In a letter to all government and private sector partners on Thursday, the EPA's Assistant Administrator for Enforcement and Compliance Assurance Susan Parker Bodine said that the agency does not expect power plants, factories or other companies to meet environmental standards and reporting of pollution during this time and it won't pursue penalties if companies break the rules.
