As the threat of climate change intensifies globally, achieving carbon neutrality (Net Zero) has become a necessity rather than an option. Many countries have set ambitious targets to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, implementing various policies and technologies to make it a reality. This post explores the strategies and accomplishments of major nations while discussing future challenges. 1. What is Carbon Neutrality? Carbon neutrality is the state where the amount of carbon dioxide (CO₂) emitted into the atmosphere is balanced by the amount absorbed, resulting in net-zero emissions. Key Methods : Reducing the use of fossil fuels and increasing renewable energy adoption. Transitioning industrial processes and introducing carbon capture and storage (CCUS) technologies. Enhancing carbon absorption through forest restoration and nature-based solutions (NbS). 2. Strategies of Major Nations 2-1.
