???? As the world tunes into the 2024 Olympics, let’s remember: nations should not compete for Earth Overshoot.????? While athletes train for victory, #EarthOvershootDay reminds us of our urgent need for sustainability. Earth Overshoot Day marks the date when humanity’s demand for ecological resources in a given year exceeds what Earth can regenerate in that year. ?? No nation should aim to be first in overshoot. Let’s push back this date and commit to a sustainable future! ??Check out our latest blog to learn how: https://lnkd.in/eSqMfBev #ParisOlympics #ClimateAction

??If everyone on the planet lived like the population of Qatar, our Earth Overshoot Day would fall on February 11th - That's one and a half months into the year. ?? Earth Overshoot Day?marks the date when humanity has exhausted nature’s budget for the year. It's calculated by dividing the planet’s bio-capacity (the amount of ecological resources Earth is able to generate that year), by humanity’s Ecological Footprint (humanity’s demand for that year), and multiplying by 365, the number of days in a year (Source: Global Footprint Network). In 2024, our overall Earth Overshoot Day is expected to fall on July 25. In 2023, Earth Overshoot Day fell on August 2. We can't deny that we're operating in overshoot. ???? If Germany keeps moving in the direction it does so now, it would face an early Overshoot day on May 2nd, with many other European countries falling in May also. ?? Today on Earth Day, we must reminder ourselves of the importance of environmental conservation and sustainability, focusing on us taking action now for a healthier planet and a sustainable future. We're quickly using up our natural resources and nature is unable to keep up with our growing demands. ?? This is why we believe not in a circular future, but a circular now. A Circular economy is the most sustainable way to maintaining the long-term health of our planet, and we can show you why we think so. Just give us a follow to see how. #earthday2024 #circulareconomy #circularity #sustainability #overshootday

?? Earth Overshoot Day 2024 Falls on August 1st ?? As every year on June 5th, the Global Footprint Network has announced Earth Overshoot Day 2024. This year, Earth Overshoot Day falls on August 1st, the same as in 2018 and 2022. Earth Overshoot Day marks the date when humanity's demand for ecological resources exceeds what Earth can regenerate in that year. The earlier this date, the more resources humanity consumes. What must we do to push Earth Overshoot Day later in the year and ultimately prevent it from occurring? 1. Stop climate change 2. Stop biodiversity loss 3. Stop pollution and overuse of freshwater reserves 4. Stop air pollution 5. Stop overuse of land resources 6. Regenerate oceans Many natural reserves are long-term damaged, so we need to regenerate them. We must shift from a degenerative to a nature-positive lifestyle – in politics, in business, and in society. The last time humanity used fewer resources than the Earth could regenerate was in 1970. Project1970 aims to restore this balance while maintaining the achieved standard of living. We assist companies in transitioning from degenerative to nature-positive business models. Follow us to learn from positive examples and maximize your positive impact.

?? Earth Overshoot Day 2024: A Call to Action Today, August 1st, marks Earth Overshoot Day 2024 - the date when humanity's demand for ecological resources exceeds what our planet can regenerate in a year. As Climeworkers, this day serves as a powerful reminder of our mission and the impact of our work. Key facts:? - 1.75 Earths: The number of planets needed to sustain our current level of resource consumption - 2,5 Earths: In 2022, it took 2.5 Earths to support humanity if everyone on the planet lived like people in Switzerland. - More than 80% of the world population live in countries which ecological budgets are in the red. - In 2024, US Overshoot Day is March 14. The German one is on May 2, while the Swiss Overshoot Day is on May 27 (NB: No info available for Iceland). ? ? ? How can we #MoveTheDate? - Implementing a $100/ton carbon price could shift it by 63 days? - Generating 75% of electricity from low-carbon sources would move it by 26 days? - Reducing workweeks without pay cuts could push it by 11 days? ? At Climeworks, our goal is to reverse this trend by capturing and permanently removing CO? from the atmosphere. Earth Overshoot Day is a good reminder for our mission. Each day beyond this point signifies deeper ecological debt, reinforcing why our efforts are crucial in combating climate change.?? Together, we can create a more sustainable future. What actions will you take to #MoveTheDate? #EarthOvershootDay #ClimateAction #Sustainability #Climeworks?Global Footprint Network

Today marks a critical moment in our environmental calendar – Earth Overshoot Day 2024. This is the day when our ecological footprint exceeds what Earth can regenerate in a year. As of August 1st, we're using nature 1.7 times faster than our planet's ecosystems can replenish. ? Although Earth Overshoot Day has held steady for a decade, it remains early in the year, occurring just after 7 months of the year have passed. The remainder of the year humanity lives from overuse, further depleting the biosphere. Therefore, even as the date holds steady, the pressure on the planet keeps increasing, since damage from overshoot accumulates over time. ? Just as athletes achieving breakthroughs through focus, innovation, and effort, humanity needs to do the same if it wants to succeed in ending overshoot by design. ? By sharing solutions and success stories, we can inspire action to #MoveTheDate. Cutting CO2 emissions from fossil fuels by half could for example push back Earth Overshoot Day by three months. ? Together, we can create a world where we live within our planet's means. ?? ? #Sustainability #EarthOvershootDay #GlobalFootprintNetwork

?? Reflecting on Earth: What Would a Stranger Think? Imagine if an alien visitor arrived on Earth today, observing our planet with fresh eyes. What would they see? What would they think? As we celebrate Earth Day, let's take a moment to step into the shoes of this hypothetical stranger. What would they notice about our home? The vibrant diversity of life, the vast oceans, the towering mountains, and the bustling cities. But they would also see the scars we've left on our planet. Pollution choking our air and water, deforestation stripping away precious habitats, and climate change altering the very fabric of our environment. If this visitor asked us what we're doing to protect our planet, what would we say? Are we taking meaningful steps to preserve the beauty and abundance of Earth for future generations? As inhabitants of this remarkable planet, it's our responsibility to be stewards of the Earth. Let's commit to actions that nurture rather than harm our home. Whether it's reducing our carbon footprint, advocating for environmental policies, or supporting sustainable practices, every effort counts. let's pledge to treat our planet with the respect and care it deserves. Together, let's ensure that Earth remains a welcoming and hospitable home for all its inhabitants, human and non-human alike. ???? #ProtectOurPlanet #Sustainability #ClimateAction
