Products that bear the label “carbon neutral” are supposed to be produced with no added emissions to the atmosphere.

Before I make such a controversial claim, let’s get some facts straight… There is far too much carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

We can damage the stability of the atmosphere on both sides of the equation – by emitting too many greenhouse gases, or by reducing the earth’s CO2-absorbing capacity (for example, by chopping down rainforests). We can also build on and improve this take-up of CO2 , also known as carbon sinks, by planting more trees or restoring wetlands.

So, why is the amount of carbon in our atmosphere is increasing fast if our emissions from energy are stable ? Deforestation is one.
