Carbon-Neutral Future
A carbon-neutral future refers to a state or goal where the net carbon dioxide emissions produced by human activities are balanced out by an equivalent amount of carbon dioxide removed from the atmosphere, resulting in no net increase in atmospheric carbon levels. Achieving a carbon-neutral future typically involves reducing greenhouse gas emissions through energy efficiency, renewable energy sources, and sustainable practices, while also employing methods such as carbon offsetting or carbon capture and storage to remove existing carbon dioxide from the air. This concept is essential in the context of combating climate change, as it aims to limit global warming and its associated impacts by stabilizing greenhouse gas concentrations, thereby promoting environmental sustainability and resilience for future generations.
