Carbon Neutral
Carbon neutral refers to achieving a balance between the carbon dioxide (CO₂) emitted and the amount removed from the atmosphere, resulting in zero net carbon emissions.
How to Achieve Carbon Neutrality
1
Measure Emissions
Calculate your carbon footprint across Scope 1, 2, and 3.
2
Reduce What You Can
Implement energy efficiency, switch to renewables, optimize operations.
3
Offset the Rest
Purchase verified carbon credits to neutralize remaining emissions.
Carbon Neutral vs Net Zero
Key difference: Carbon neutral can be achieved primarily through offsets, while net zero requires actual emission reductions of 90%+ before using removals for the residual. Net zero is considered more ambitious and credible.
