On April 7, Austria celebrates Austrian Overshoot Day. On this day, all of the country's resources have already been used up for the whole year. However, everyone can improve their carbon footprint by taking a look in their own closet. Krone+ shows you how to turn hidden treasures into hard cash and protect the environment in the process.

Last year it was April 6, but this year Austria has improved its position on Austrian Overshoot Day by one day. Actually by two, if you add February 29. But: no reason to be happy. The fact that after just over three months all the resources for a year have been used up is a disaster for the environment.
