Disturbing

Humanity Has Already Used An Entire Earth's Worth Of Resources This Year
Humans have, in fewer than eight months, already used up one year’s worth of the planet's resources. This is based on an analysis of the demand that the human population is putting on the Earth, through various actions such as pumping carbon into the atmosphere and scouring the sea of fish, and the rate at which the planet can replenish these resources.
At that rate, it's clear at some point we'll become environmentally bankrupt, and then where will we be? Oh, yeah. Dead. Mort. Extinct.
