𝗘𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 — 𝗔𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗽
Tomorrow, 𝟯𝟬 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝘆, is 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘁 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲: the day when humanity exhausts all the resources the Earth is able to regenerate in a year.
From tomorrow we'll be living in ecological debt — consuming the equivalent of 𝟭.𝟳𝟯 𝗘𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗵𝘀, the highest level of overshoot ever recorded.
We want to share what it means, for us, to act concretely every day.
Since 2018, our 𝗕𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁 has been equipped with a hydroelectric plant and several photovoltaic installations. Here's what we produce in a year thanks to these renewable sources:
→ 𝟯𝟲.𝟵𝟰% of the energy we use comes from renewable sources → 𝟭,𝟲𝟵𝟵,𝟯𝟬𝟰.𝟲𝟵 𝗸𝗪𝗵 produced in a year from hydroelectric and photovoltaic power → 𝟴𝟬𝟱.𝟰𝟳 𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗢𝟮 avoided in a year → 𝟯𝟭𝟳.𝟳𝟳 𝘁𝗼𝗲 (tonnes of oil equivalent) saved in a year
To give a real sense of scale:
🏠 1,699,304.69 kWh would cover a full year of consumption for 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝟲𝟮𝟬 𝗜𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗱𝘀 of 4 people (ARERA average: ~2,700 kWh/year) 🚗 805.47 tonnes of CO2 avoided are equivalent to the annual emissions of 𝗮𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝟱𝟯𝟱 𝗽𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝘀 (average 11,000 km/year, ACI data) ✈️ …or 𝗮𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱 𝟴𝟬𝟬 𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱-𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗽 𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴-𝗵𝗮𝘂𝗹 𝗳𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 (𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘢𝘯–𝘕𝘦𝘸 𝘠𝘰𝘳𝘬) 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥
(𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘣𝘢𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘯 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘺 𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘴 — 𝘈𝘙𝘌𝘙𝘈, 𝘈𝘊𝘐 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘴𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘰𝘳 𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘢 — 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘢 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘦.)
Earth Overshoot Day reminds us that the time to change course is shrinking every year. That's why we keep investing in clean energy and in an industrial model that looks beyond its own balance sheet, toward the planet's.
