Geometry brain teaser: A ribbon around the globe

A really simple but still a little non-intuitive fact about the circumference of a circle. If you tie a ribbon around the equator, how much longer of a ribbon do you need if you want to lift it off the ground by 1 meter?

things that simple but the math is right and the intuition is worng.
