 vershoot Day Is Coming Sooner and Sooner		\n		This year\, August 1 will m
 ark Earth Overshoot Day\, the day that humanity’s demand for ecological
  resources exceeds the resources Earth can regenerate within that year.\n
 According to Statista\, Over the decades\, the ecological and carbon foot
 print of humans has gradually increased\, all while Earth’s biocapacity
 \, i.e.\, its ability to regenerate resources has diminished significantl
 y. That has led to Earth Overshoot Day arriving earlier and earlier\, mov
 ing from as late as December 30 in 1970. In the pandemic year of 2020\, i
 t did move back somewhat significantly from July 29 to August 22. But\, d
 espite 2023 representing a slight positive shift from 2022's July 28\, th
 e trend was one of stagnation rather than progress.\n			/*! elementor - v

 unced each year on June 5 (World Environment Day) by Global Footprint Net
 work. To determine the date of Earth Overshoot Day for each year\, Global
  Footprint Network calculates the number of days of that year that Earth
 ’s biocapacity suffices to provide for humanity’s Ecological Footprin
 t. The remainder of the year corresponds to global overshoot. Earth Overs
 hoot Day is computed by dividing the planet’s biocapacity (the amount o
 f ecological resources Earth is able to generate that year)\, by humanity
 ’s Ecological Footprint (humanity’s demand for that year)\, and multi
 plying by the number of days in a year. This year\, as we are in a leap y
 ear\, it is 366 days: Earth Overshoot Day 2024 falls on August 1.
