Abstract: Abstract Carbon neutrality and peak carbon dioxide emission targets are crucial in curbing climate change by reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and limiting the extent of global temperature rise. They are called “dual carbon targets” together. Carbon neutrality aims to stabilize atmospheric CO2 concentration, and the peak carbon dioxide emissions target sets a clear goal for when CO2 emissions must start decreasing to avoid the most severe impacts of climate change. This article will illustrate the situation of dual carbon targets, how to achieve the targets in approaches of technology, ecology, and economic and political supports, and lastly, the challenges that would be faced in the “post-carbon-neutrality era.”
