Human production of materials such as plastic, asphalt and metal now collectively outweighs every other living organism on earth.
A study from the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel estimates how human made mass has changed from 1900 to present day.
The results show that humans are doubling their mass imprint every 20 years. It also found that each of us adds more than their own body weight to the world each week.
In 2020, we hit a new record. For the first time, human mass hit about 1.1 trillion tons, exceeding the overall global biomass.
