The Vatican newspaper gave prominent front-page coverage in its
August 9 edition to “Earth Overshoot Day”—the day on which, according to
the Global Footprint Network, “humanity will have used up nature’s
budget for the entire year.”
“We emit more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than the oceans and forests are capable of absorbing,” L’Osservatore Romano stated. Paraphrasing the Global Footprint Network’s CEO, the newspaper emphasized that people must choose between “collapse or stability".
Well, if the Global Footprint Network says it, it must me true! They are the MSNBC of the global footprint crowd!
WHAT WE DO | We are an international think tank that provides Ecological Footprint accounting tools to drive informed policy decisions in a resource-constrained world. We work with local and national governments, investors, and opinion leaders to ensure all people live well, within the means of one planet.
