The mass quarantine is most likely going to cause another baby boom. I wonder if the longer term effect of the pandemic is actually going to accelerate climate change.
Shouldn't this be discussed, at least? In preparation of the various scenarios.
Wouldn't it make sense with everyone stuck at home and bored, "things" might happen? In a few years we might refer to children born in 2021 as "Corona/Covid Kids", no?
And with a population "boom", pressures on the planet may increase? Perhaps. People may become desperate for the "good old days", and/or won't care so much about the planet because they are desperate to survive financially at any cost [to the planet]...?
Perhaps not - if society becomes more conservative relative to "dirty" energy usage (oil, plastics, etc)...? And beings to enjoy, and appreciate things like working from home, cleaner air, etc...
[edit]: I should say that the "boom" may be tiny, if so none of this may matter.
The US baby boom was caused by a coincidence of many important factors (people thinking "today is probably my last free day ever" was a huge one). We have none of them today.
The US baby boom coincided with when WWII ended, not began or during. Mainly it was families that would've gotten started during the war getting delayed until after.
