Earth Overshoot Day
overshootday.orgThis seems flawed to me. Two countries with the same population and the same behaviour are treated differently because they have a different land mass? That's crazy.
Why am I sharing this today? Cause today my country overshoots its resources and would everyone act and live like Germany does, we would need three earthes to live on. We need to reduce CO2 by a factor of three in the next year's to be sustainable and being a father and someone how actually loves this planet and humanity for all it wonders and creativity i am terrified by the development it takes. What are your thoughts and where will be in 50years?

Not quite. Germany is one of the few countries in the world whose population is shrinking, and their emissions (both total and per capita) have fallen by more than 20% since 1990.
If every country was like that, resource overconsumption would solve itself in time. Where you are going is at least as important as where you are.
Same here.
