Got to be wary of statistics. Last I checked (a few years ago) international shipping and aviation were not being accounted for very well, If at all.
For some reason countries do not want to add those figures to their domestic totals.
Edit: Not to take away from your assertion, which I agree with. The effects of the pandemic will not be unmixed environmentally. In the green corner: telecommuting and increased use of delivery services. In the brown corner: increased vehicle use and residential energy use from living in low-density areas.
