Shocking: 3.6 planets

It ain't much if it ain't Dutch, right?

Think again because this April, the Netherlands will already hit its #Overshoot Day.

And according to the Financial Times, we might be the first country globally to hit the limits of #growth. From April till 31 December 2023, we are using too many resources every single day. We need 3.6 planets in total if everyone would go Dutchie style.

3.6 planets! 🌍 🌍 🌍 🌍

That's not how we treat our piggy bank, the pantry, let alone a company's balance sheet. So why do we allow this to our own planet? We need to become more circular, and we better be quick.

♻ Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
