These two countries choose policies with varying degrees of strictness, which may cause different impacts on production and air quality. This article uses regression methods to analyze the leading environmental and industrial production indicators before and after the pandemic and determine the impact of changes in industrial production during the epidemic on the air quality during the epidemic, according to the regression analysis, the quality of the environment has improved due to the control measures on economic activities.
