Abstract

The worldwide push for carbon neutral operations drives development of carbon reduction technologies and natural resource sustainability approaches because of the climate emergency. This evaluation analyzes recent strategies which use technology alongside natural strategies to reduce environmental carbon pollution. It reviews key aspects of carbon capture technologies, renewable energy programs, and green hydrogen developments. How nature-based practices such as forest planting and wetland regeneration and enhanced soil organic carbon storage function to boost technological carbon reduction methods is also discussed. The main emphasis centers on implementing real-time carbon monitoring systems together with life cycle assessment tools and artificial intelligence-driven predictive models to improve decision-making for carbon management. The evaluation investigates circular economy principles which include resource efficiency combined with waste valorization along with industrial symbiosis because these principles are vital for carbon footprint reduction in multiple sectors. Analysis of large-scale implementation obstacles and policy frameworks, economic viability assessments serve to understand main implementation barriers while exploring opportunities toward carbon neutrality. Moreover, it emphasizes how combining new carbon reduction systems with sustainable resource management leads to complete neutral environment solutions and explains future research directions necessary for achieving sustainable ecology and climate resilience through scientific studies that align policy frameworks needs with economic interests.
