Can you find your country in the picture?
This is the 2026 Earth Overshoot Day by Country.
Earth Overshoot Day by Country marks the date when humanity’s annual demand for ecological resources exceeds what Earth could regenerate in that year if everyone consumed like the residents of a particular country.
For instance, the 2026 Earth Overshoot Day for Qatar is February 4. If everyone on the planet consumed like they do in Qatar, we would need 10 Earths.
We have been exceeding Earth’s regeneration capacity since 1971(45 years)! We are at a global consumption capacity that requires 1.8 Earths.
