Concerningly: From Statista: This year’s Earth Overshoot Day is July 24, which is the day when human demand for ecological resources surpasses what the planet can replenish in a given year. While Earth’s biocapacity, or capacity to replenish resources, has greatly decreased over the decades, humankind’s ecological footprint has steadily grown. From as late as December 31 in 1972 until mid-July in 2025 and prior years, this has caused Earth Overshoot Day to arrive earlier and earlier. As of this year, the rate at which humans are depleting the resources of nature is 1.8 times greater than the rate at which ecosystems can recover. In addition to utilizing more freshwater than can be regenerated and generating more carbon dioxide than the biosphere can absorb, humans also misuse other limited natural resources. Not only is overshoot the cause of deforestation, resource depletion, biodiversity loss, and the accumulation of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere, which exacerbates extreme weather events. According to the organization’s press release announcing this year’s Earth Overshoot Day, it also contributes to stagflation, food and energy poverty, health crises, and violence. The last time Earth Overshoot Day went backwards was in 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic halted global progress and drastically cut down on CO2 emissions and resource use. Recalculations using the most recent data and accounting techniques show that Overshoot Day occurred on August 9 of that year, but it swiftly rebounded to July 29 of 2021, when normalcy slowly returned in many regions of the world. Earth Overshoot Day was observed on July 25 for the previous three years, however this year it was advanced by one day.

Similar to what Europe and Asia had done before 10,000 BC, the still-wholly nomadic tribes in the Americas continued their relentless war against wild animals. Mammoths and giant sloths were still being hunted in 6000 BC, but by 5000 BC, all large animals (apart from reindeer) had likely been destroyed, and crop cultivation was possibly starting as a result.
