Source: Elhacham et al: Global human-made mass exceeds all living biomass, 2020

“We find that Earth is exactly at the crossover point; in the year 2020 (± 6), the anthropogenic mass, which has recently doubled roughly every 20 years, will surpass all global living biomass. On average, for each person on the globe, anthropogenic mass equal to more than his or her bodyweight is produced every week.” (Elhacham et al, 2020)
