What Is Overshoot Day? How Can You Stop It? Overshoot Day with Sháán díín Cedar

July 29th came in just like another day
 
People went through their daily lives, like just another day... 
 
But after 155 days in 2021, we have reached Earth Overshoot day
 
(a day that marks the moment in time when demand for earth’s ecological resources exceeds what the planet can regenerate.)
 
And each year, this day comes in earlier and earlier...
 
Its halfway through the year, and humans have already surpassed what global resources can sustain in a single year
 
The lumber we can sustainably harvest, the fisheries we fish, the ore we mine, the pollution we put in our waters...
 
Our planet needs a break… 
 
Here’s how we can make a difference 
 
Think about our demand for stuff.
Is it necessary? 
Is it resource intensive? 
Can we shift your demand toward the “reuse” economy?
 
Advocate for initiatives that your employer can take. Ask:
Do we have a sustainability and equity commitment and are we actively executing on it?
How do we source our products? Are there alternatives?
How are we tracking and reducing our carbon footprint?
 
Show up at the ballot box.
Look up your local, state, and federal leadership and put the pressure on.
Support and elect leadership strong on climate and environmental justice.
 
Call, email, tag, tweet at your leaders. They see these messages. Have a relationship with your leaders and demand actions.
Hold them accountable, but also give praise where praise is due.
 
Engage at whatever level you can manage
This translates to pushing the overshoot date back and ultimately reestablishing ecosystem balance. 
 
Our planet needs us.

Welcome to Indigenous Earth Community Podcast!

A great episode to start is Episode 21: "A poem for the Earth by an Indigenous Nahuatl Women Esmeralda Gonzales"
Welcome to Indigenous Earth Community Podcast
My name is Frank Oscar Weaver,  Growing up in Paraguay, I participated in many environmental projects with the Guarani People. Leading me to be initiated in a ritual called KUNUMI PEPY, a lip piercing ceremony.  Making me an official  member of the Pai Tavyteras . There I learn the Arandu Ka’aty, the traditional teachings of Earth Keeping.  
After I moved to the U.S I made many friends from different tribes and original habitants communities from all over the world, learning that every indigenous community also have similar traditions of protecting the planet. 
Now that the climate crisis is upon us, and our planet is changing, more then ever we need to listen to Indigenous communities who are at the forefront of climate resilience, and learn from them on how we can help heal the planet, and be more sustainable in our day to day life.

Esmeralda shares the ancient wisdom of the Nahualt passed down generations after generation. This community wisdom speaks of the importance of taking care of our planet for generations to come.
