As people across the globe stay home to stop the spread of the new coronavirus, the air has cleaned up, albeit temporarily. People are also noticing animals in places and at times they don’t usually. When people stay home, Earth becomes cleaner and wilder.

Some activities must continue even as cities, counties and states effectively shut down to avoid the spread of COVID-19. Obviously our hospitals, doctors’ offices and emergency responder systems must remain open. Grocery stores are essential and so are pharmacies.
