Achieving net zero global emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), along with declining emissions of other greenhouse gases, is essential to halt global warming effectively.
Many greenhouse gas accounting systems currently allow the inclusion of passive CO2 uptake as removals, which could mislead in the context of net zero efforts.
The use of passive CO2 uptake in calculating net emissions poses a significant risk to the integrity of global climate agreements like the Paris Agreement.
To ensure that nominal net zero emissions truly halt global warming, it is crucial to address the implications of passive carbon dioxide uptake.
