Despite its relatively intuitive appearance, the ambition of carbon neutrality actually poses many challenges—both in terms of conceptualization and implementation—on fundamental parameters such as the scope of the emissions concerned or the methods for removing CO2 from the atmosphere. In addition, there is not yet a systematic analysis of the various actions and announcements on carbon neutrality, and it is therefore difficult to draw lessons from these emerging practices and discuss their implications for the implementation of the Paris Agreement.
This study proposes to contribute to the collective debate on this subject and to propose recommendations for national strategies within the framework of the objective of carbon neutrality.
