Four levers for climate neutrality The Paris Agreement with regard to limiting global warming • The past decade was the hottest on record; Arctic sea ice in October was the lowest ever, and apocalyptic fires, floods, droughts and storms are increasingly the new normal. [...] The Paris Agreement with regard to limiting global warming • The past decade was the hottest on record; Arctic sea ice in October was the lowest ever, and apocalyptic fires, floods, droughts and storms are increasingly the new normal. [...] What is carbon neutrality? • Carbon neutrality means having a balance between emitting carbon and absorbing carbon from the atmosphere in carbon sinks. [...] • To date, no artificial carbon sinks are able to remove carbon from the atmosphere on the necessary scale to fight global warming. [...] Carbon offsetting • Another way to reduce emissions and to pursue carbon neutrality is to offset emissions made in one sector by reducing them somewhere else.
