description The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed the world towards a digital era and affected the environment significantly. The present study uses a bibliometric approach to provide a comprehensive overview based on existing literature related to COVID-19 and E-learning and its environmental consequences, particularly from the year 2020–2022. In addition to the terrible impact of the pandemic on the world, environmental advantages have also been noticed. The findings show that the use of E-learning reduces the consumption of paper and prevents the cutting of trees which makes the environment more sustainable. The optimum use of technology leads to the conservation of the environment. Second, E-learning ensures developing and less developing countries to provide education at lower levels or remote areas of the society. The findings also suggest that governments and educational institutions should upgrade technology and digital tools in order to enhance E-learning education. Additionally, reviewing 1807 published articles extracted from the SCOPUS database, enrich literature related to COVID-19, E-learning, and the environment. This study also represents a graphical visualization of the bibliometric analysis using VOSviewer and R studio software. A coupling map and three-field plot also have been used for directions for future research.
