Most people were also stuck at home, living a much lower impact lifestyle.

I wondered about that - the cost to the environment (is that what you mean by 'impact'?).

I guess this is off topic. But not travelling - check. Ordering all the stuff online from different vendors, consuming more (because, more idle leisure), doing more home projects cost something.

Heck, construction is booming. That's an impact too. I wonder what it'll all add up to.
