For all of us 2020 has been a year we will remember for
the rest of our lives. It showed us that human society is
not as unbreakable as we thought. The pandemic showed us who are good leaders and who are not. The Black Lives Matter movement brought the injustice faced by the minorities to light. If you ask me we have a lot to learn from than grieve from 2020. The highlight of 2020 was the COVID-19 pandemic. Many developing countries have faced a shortage of healthcare professionals and medical equipment. Even developed countries have a shortage of medicines. So, in 2021, countries may work to improve their healthcare. During COVID-19 pandemic, imports and exports were affected adversely. Many countries are depending on the imports for many products such as electronics, pharmaceutical ingredients etc. So, in the year 2021, companies will work on diversifying supply chains and countries will work on achieving self- sufficiency. This may lead to protectionist tendencies. Many made in India good may appear in 2021. Due to the lockdown there were less carbon emissions. All of us have now become more comfortable with the virtual interface so, I believe the use of air transport will reduce just for the purposes of meeting people. Thus carbon emissions will be low in 2021 comparatively. As many people are now scared to eat out and are preferring healthy food to boost immunity, restaurants may continue to struggle in 2021 as well. There will be more investments in the companies the manufactures hygiene-related products and raw foods. In conclusion Coronavirus pandemic affected everyone and changed our daily lives in ways we could not have imagined in 2019. The world will create 2021 based on these changes and also with the lessons we learned while fighting with the pandemic. 2021 may be a second chance for us humans to learn from our mistakes.
