Reducing carbon emissions
the process of changing an activity, industry, or economy so that it produces much less carbon pollution
用法パターン：
decarbonization of [a sector/economy/system]
よくある間違い：
Do not confuse decarbonization with carbonization, which means adding carbon or turning something into carbon.
類義語
emissions reduction (broader and more general; may refer to any emissions, not only carbon-related ones)

carbon reduction (simpler and less technical; often used in business or public communication)
|
low-carbon transition (emphasizes the shift to low-carbon systems rather than the reduction process itself)
対義語
carbonization (can mean adding carbon or producing carbon, not reducing carbon emissions)
|
fossil-fuel dependence (the continued reliance on coal, oil, and gas rather than reducing carbon emissions)
