本周三暨八月二日，我们所消耗的资源已超过了地球每年能够自行补充的范围，暨“地球超载日”，这就好比我们的银行账户处于“红色区域”，提前透支了资源。
Last Wednesday, August 2nd, we’ve reached Earth Overshoot Day, surpassing the Earth’s capacity to replenish resources with our annual consumption.
We can look at it as we are entering the “red zone” of our bank account, where we spend resources we don’t have.
目前的资源消耗情况十分令人担忧，8月我们就已经消耗掉了本年度能够再生的资源量，不过，我们仍然可以采取行动来推迟这一日期。假设，全球都开始转型、采用节能型智慧城市，我们可以将地球超载日推迟29天。
如今，能源的生产和再分配过程，占全球碳排放量的比重最大，因此扩大现有解决方案的规模至关重要。 现有的成熟的、商业化的建筑、工业过程和电力生产的能源效率技术，可以将地球超载日推迟至少21天，而不会因此损失任何生产力或宜居程度。
更为合理的城市规划将从出行的层面降低碳排放量，目前个人出行产生的碳排放，占人类碳足迹总量的17%。
This is a worrisome situation, as we’re only in August, anyhow we can still take action to Move The Date later.
For instance, adopting energy-efficient Smart Cities globally, we could reclaim up to 29 days.
Nowadays energy generation and distribution contribute to a large part of global emissions, so scaling up existing solutions is crucial.
Existing off-the-shelf, commercial energy-efficiency technologies for buildings, industrial processes, and electricity production could move Overshoot Day at least 21 days, without any loss in productivity or comfort.
Also city planning can play a major role in shaping our need for cars. It matters because personal mobility makes up 17% of humanity’s carbon Footprint.
