We're only 142 days into the year and we have already reached the UK's 🪫⁠
⁠
If the whole world had the same consumption patterns as the UK, we would exhaust all of the planet’s natural resources for 2026 by today. ⁠
⁠
🌍🌍➕️ In fact, we would need 2.6 Earths in order to sustain this level of consumption. ⁠
⁠
How can we all be more sustainable? We need to invest in a real Circular Economy. While it's far from the only solution, by repairing and reusing our stuff instead of buying new we can reduce our impact on our planet.
