In 2020, total Anthropomass surpassed Biomass

Anthropomass is defined as the ‘human-made mass is the mass embedded in visible inanimate solid objects/components made by humans (that have not yet been demolished or taken out of service)’ (One Health Research Center). Biomass is defined as the the sum of all materials that is sourced from biological orgins, this includes, but not limited to, plants, animals, and animal byproducts. Th tipping point of which man-made mass surpassed biomass is a critical point in Earth’s history. We are currently in a environmental and ecological crisis that needs to be solved. Masao Studio aims to create products that aims to reduce the need to increase anthropomass and promote sustainble consumption, production, creation, and purchasing. Masao Studio hopes to be a step into a direction that allows humans to have a strong-positive relationship with earth, the environment, and its resources while reducing the population’s overall impact
