Introduction
Carbon dioxide (“CO2”) is a chemical compound and greenhouse gas that traps the sunlight and heat energy in the earth’s atmosphere, making it warmer. While CO2 is naturally present in the atmosphere, large and excessive concentrations of the gas disturb the earth’s climate and ecosystem by rapidly raising the temperature. Since the Industrial Revolution, human activities have largely increased the atmospheric concentration of CO2.
In response to the rise in global average temperature, some countries have taken steps to decrease their carbon dioxide emissions. Countries are considered carbon negative when they remove more CO2 from the atmosphere than they emit. CO2 is removed from the air through either natural methods, such as reforestation and the use of innovative land management techniques, or through technology.
Attaining carbon negativity is not a simple task; in fact, most countries already struggle to reach net-zero carbon (when a country removes as much CO2 as it emits). According to McKinsey Sustainability, the costs to reach net-zero carbon alone are in the trillions. This makes it incredibly difficult for poor and developing countries to become carbon negative.
