Net zero 

A state in which the amount of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted into the atmosphere is balanced by an equivalent amount of GHGs removed, resulting in no net increase in atmospheric emissions. Achieving net zero means that the total concentration of GHGs remains stable over time. Net zero targets are typically set by companies, countries, industries and regions to guide their emissions reduction efforts. These strategies generally focus on reducing emissions as much as possible through energy efficiency, renewable energy adoption and sustainable practices, while offsetting any remaining emissions through carbon removal solutions such as reforestation, carbon capture technologies or other forms of carbon sequestration.
