Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'carbon negative'

The state of removing more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than is emitted, resulting in a net reduction of atmospheric carbon. Carbon negative strategies include technologies like direct air capture, enhanced natural processes such as reforestation, and industrial practices that sequester more carbon than they produce. This concept is particularly relevant in alternate histories exploring different climate change trajectories or technological development paths that prioritized carbon sequestration earlier.
