Country Overshoot Day - Sweden
Thursday 10 April
The libraries draw attention to Country Overshoot Day with, among other things, exhibitions of materials from our collections that are linked to the topic.
Every year, a Country Overshoot Day marks the date when the planet’s annual biocapacity budget would be used up if everyone on Earth lived at the same level of consumption as the residents of that particular country.
