Today is Denmark's Overshoot day

Today is Denmark's Overshoot day

πŸ‡©πŸ‡° From now on, Danes live in resource debt.

From the 28th of March 2023, Denmark is using more resources than the planet can sustainably provide within a year.

But it's strange since Denmark often leads the sustainability rankings.

Yet if everyone lived like the Danes, we would need 4 planets to exist!

We need a clean grid, air, and water, but we must consume less in the Global North.

There's no infinite growth on a finite planet 🌎

PS.: Stay tuned for our report on Denmark's Circularity Gap. We will be releasing key recommendations on how to move the date this summer.
