  Hi, Carbon neutral means there is no net release of carbon – normally CO2. This means companies can work out what their carbon emissions are and of set them by planting trees for example.

The amount of carbon (usually carbon dioxide, CO2) released into the atmosphere by a process is equal to the amount absorbed from the atmosphere.
