Why do you need to worry about the carbon footprint?
Do you know the term carbon footprint? Associated with greenhouse gas emissions, humanity's carbon footprint is the main cause of global warming and climate change.
Is it possible to go to zero CO2 emissions?
In addition to reducing emissions, other actions, such as investments in renewable energy and capture and removal, need to take place to bring levels to zero.
According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the next three years will be decisive for achieving zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2050.
