A business reaches net-zero emissions when its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are reduced to a minimum and offset with carbon credits. As a result, the total amount of GHG produced equals the amount of offset GHG emissions.
For example, a Canadian construction company commits to achieving net-zero emissions by 2040 by switching its fleet to electric vehicles, sourcing renewable electricity for its facilities, and purchasing carbon offsets for the remaining emissions that cannot yet be eliminated.
