   August 1st is #EarthOvershootDay - the date when demand on our planet’s resources surpasses its capacity to regenerate them.

   Earth Overshoot Day is getting earlier and earlier in the year. mostly due to our wasteful lifestyles.

   If everyone lived like the USA or Australia, we need 5 Earths for sustainability.

   If the world lived like Japan, China or most European nations, we need 3 Earths.

   We have only 1 Earth
