English term or phrase: carbon neutrality
Definition from TermCoord:
Carbon neutrality is succeeded when there is a balance between emitting and absorbing carbon to and from the atmosphere. Carbon sinks help in preserving this balance. Carbon sinks are the systems that absorb more carbon than they emit. The main natural carbon sinks are soil, forests and oceans. According to estimations, natural sinks remove between 9.5 and 11 Gt of CO2 per year when the annual global CO2 emissions reached 37.1 Gt in 2017. Therefore, one way to become carbon neutral is by protecting all these natural sinks.

Example sentence(s):
  • Apple is providing detail on its approach to carbon neutrality with a roadmap for other companies, as industries look to reduce their impact on climate change. Apple
  • "Achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 requires unprecedented political will and cooperation – but it's not impossible." Climate policy expert Farhana Yamin explains what becoming 'carbon neutral' means and how we can make it happen. The Elders
  • Another way to reduce emissions and to pursue carbon neutrality is to offset emissions made in one sector by reducing them somewhere else. This can be done through investment in renewable energy, energy efficiency or other clean, low-carbon technologies. EuroParl

Example sentence(s):
  • Mai mulți comercianți cu amănuntul își măsoară deja amprenta de carbon, precum și evoluția programelor lor referitoare la schimbările climatice. Aceștia s-au angajat să-și reducă permanent emisiile de carbon într-un mod eficient din punct de vedere al protecției mediului și al costurilor. Respectivii comercianții cu amănuntul răspund deja, de ani buni, cerințelor ambițioase ale organizației Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP – Proiectul de informare cu privire la emisiile de carbon). - Măsurarea și reducerea amprentei de ca  
  • În ceea ce privește emisiile corporative, o companie are deja în plan să fie complet CO2-neutră în lanțul său de furnizare și produse până în 2030. Aceasta va reduce amprenta de carbon a funcționării sale la zero cu 20 de ani înainte de data-țintă stabilită de IPCC. - Apple își va reduce amprenta de carbon
