This is a recording of the Go Green session held on 19 May, exploring the concept of Earth Overshoot Day.
The session was led by the OU’s Professor of Climate Change and Energy, Stephen Peake, who explained what Earth Overshoot Day is, why it matters, and how global demand for resources continues to exceed what the planet can regenerate each year, including the UK’s position. Watch the recording to learn more about the impact of resource consumption and what it means for a sustainable future.
