What is net zero?

Net zero is to make the amount of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere equal to the amount of greenhouse gases withdrawn from the atmosphere. Net zero is an important goal in the fight against climate change.

To achieve net zero, greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced and greenhouse gases must be withdrawn from the atmosphere. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions can be achieved through measures such as increasing energy efficiency, investing in renewable energy sources and improving waste management. Withdrawal of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere can be achieved through measures such as forest protection and afforestation.
