In this episode, we discuss carbon footprint, which refers to the total greenhouse gases emitted by an activity or product.
Individuals can decrease their footprint by improving energy efficiency, reducing waste, and using renewable energy.
Governments can implement emission taxes, caps, and tradable licenses to curb corporate emissions.
Carbon capture and storage involves trapping and storing carbon dioxide, while carbon offsetting, like planting trees, counteracts emissions.
Finally, carbon-neutral products do not increase atmospheric carbon dioxide levels.
