We’ve all seen what is happening with the coronavirus in the world lately. With fear and panic increasing and the toilet paper crisis still going, it seems that there is only negativity and despair in the world. However, it isn’t all that bad, like they say, “every cloud has a silver lining”. Here are just some of the silver linings that have affected the world from coronavirus. Countless factories shut down in China due to the coronavirus. This caused the air pollution to drop and cleared the skies in China. In Italy, the Government put the whole country in lockdown which brought the tourism to zero. This made the boat traffic in the Venice canals to nearly nothing, this meant that the water pollution stopped. After a few weeks fishes and dolphins came back to the canals in for the first time in sixty years! Another silver lining from coronavirus is that now everyone washing their hands! Those are just some of the positive things that have affected the world from the coronavirus. 

Here are some things that have positively affected my life due to the coronavirus. The coronavirus has forced my parents to stay home from work and had granted me another week of spring break. My family and I have been spending a lot more time together, we played board games, watched movies, and did a bunch more stuff. I have also got a lot of time to practice my video gaming skills, now that school is shortened. Which brings me to my next silver lining, which is that coronavirus has shortened school. However, I do miss school a little bit and online school is a little annoying. Another silver lining is that I’ve been able to catch up on some old hobbies that I haven’t been able to do. For example, I searched through my garage from my bow and practiced my archery. These are some things silver linings that have come from coronavirus.
