Post-Covid City

‘A post covid city’ what does that mean? It is an opportunity for us to make a positive change to the world for good. This is not the first time the world had had to get through a pandemic. Over the years we have been through many and the world has always changed when it came out the other side. 

This pandemic has cost the world a lot in areas like retail which where already struggling beforehand and have now resulted in losing some of our big named brand stores and losing many of our quirky independent business. Not only has it been hard on us all mentally and physically but it may have had a positive effect on the planet by slowing global warming as Co2 levels have dropped as a result of reduced travel.

Our new normal for now is wearing a mask everywhere, working, living from home being stuck with only a screen for communication. This is effecting people’s emotional and social health which effects the young and old generations the most. This is not the world we are used to. But hopefully we can start looking at making it more green and community based as we rebuild after the pandemic is over. One where we mix some of the old with the new causing a change in  how we see the world around us.
