PVA(@PVAenglish):#EarthOvershootDay marks the point in the year when humanity's demand for resources overtakes what the planet can regenerate in the remaining months. Sorry, that's it for this year. We've used a year's worth of Earth's resources in 7 months. Everything from here until the end of the year is borrowed. We'd need 1.73 Earths to support the pace we use resources with coal, oil and gas making 62% of this overshoot. Scaling clean energy is the single biggest lever we have to move this date back. From now until December 31st we are living on "ecological credit."
