I am working on 'carbon neutral' lately and I have some issues with the term; I think 'fossil-fuel free' or 'zero carbon emissions' describe moving away from fossil fuel economy more earnestly. 'Carbon neutral' incorporates 'balancing' carbon emissions, which seems to me like 'creative' accounting, which might be disasterous for the respective action plans and for our planet.

Apart from that, asking from a human being (or, generally, a mamal) to stay 'neutral' regarding carbon, is like asking him/her to move away from food or breathing: impossible.

Am I the only one who is losing her sleep over the issue?
