Answer: COVID- 19 has impacted each and every creature around the globe in various ways leading to dramatic global loss.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pros: Multiple changes to the ecosystem and climate have been brought about by COVID-19. Air quality has improved in many cities and water pollution has decreased globally as a result of movement restrictions and a major slowdown in social and economic activity.

Cons: According to the reports, COVID-19's greatest environmental harm came from soil contamination caused by disposable face masks. These have caused the accumulation and continuous growth of solid waste as well as soil contamination, including contamination of reservoirs and coastal areas got worse.
