THE CHALLENGE
Starting in 2020, there was a new type of virus that almost conquer and destroy human lives. We experience the millions of lives lost and take years to overcome the pandemic. This is a hard time for humans, but without our existence, the environment is healing from pollution. According to The New York Times, Coronavirus has led to an astonishing shutdown of economic activity and a drastic reduction in the use of fossil fuels. In China, the pandemic caused a drop in carbon emissions of an estimated 25 percent, which is equivalent to 200 million tons of carbon dioxide. In the short term, nature shows us how ecological would be without human activities. After the tragedy of the pandemic, the world has formed new behaviours of lifestyles to fight against the virus. To prevent the spreading of COVID-19, the healthcare and medical system enters the post-pandemic era. With health awareness about the symptoms of disease, the community start to pay attention to the minor changes in the body. Hence, there are two major concerns that occur after the crisis, which are health and the environment. In this competition, the participants are required to propose only 1 innovative product related to health and the environment.
