Earth overshoot day

A day is marked as Earth overshoot day when consumption of resources like water, food, carbon exceeds capacity of earth to re-generate.

Picture - Coal mine Dhanbad(India). As per local people living nearby coal mines " We see our homes shaking every hour because of blast in the mines"
It is 8th month of the year and we have used all of the earth resources. Do you this is point to worry !! No?

The factor to consider and worry about is - Overshoot day is constantly moving up the calendar.

In 1988 - 15th October was the overshoot day
In 1998 - 30th September was the overshoot day
In 2008- 15th August was the overshoot day
In 2018- 25th July was the overshoot day

Each time we move up is a reminder that we are running out of time to reverse the trend and earth will not able to sustain us for a long time.
