We can sometimes underestimate the cumulative effect of small steps. The Earth Overshoot Day website notes that If we move the date 6 days each year, humanity can be out of overshoot before 2050.
‘Halving our Ecological Footprint of clothing would move the date of Earth Overshoot Day 5 days …If we can double the lifetime use of our clothes, we can reduce the resource demand by half. Maintaining our existing wardrobe by buying pre-owned, repairing, and upcycling increases the lifespan of clothing.’ https://www.overshootday.org/portfolio/giving-clothing-a-longer-life/
