Technologies and perspectives for achieving carbon neutrality
Open accessAbstract
from the atmosphere. Herein, we review innovative technologies that offer solutions achieving carbon (C) neutrality and sustainable development, including those for renewable energy production, food system transformation, waste valorization, C sink conservation, and C-negative manufacturing. The wealth of knowledge disseminated in this review could inspire the global community and drive the further development of innovative technologies to mitigate climate change and sustainably support human activities.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
This review surveys technologies and perspectives for achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, covering renewable energy, food system transformation, waste valorization, carbon sink conservation, CCUS, and satellite/Digital Earth monitoring. It argues that no single technology is sufficient and that integrated technological, policy, and behavioral changes are needed to reduce GHG emissions and enhance carbon sequestration.
Key findings
- Renewable energy technologies include solar, wind, ocean, bioenergy, H2, nuclear, geothermal, and energy storage. The share of renewables in global electricity production grew from 27% in 2019 to 29% in 2020; nuclear accounts for 40% of low-C electricity generation worldwide and avoids about 1.7 Gt CO2 emissions per year; geothermal energy provided 62% of Iceland’s energy production in 2020 and achieved about 300 million tons of annual CO2 emission reduction globally in 2020.
- Food systems account for more than one-third of global anthropogenic GHG emissions, with 71% from agricultural crop-livestock production systems and land-use change. Forests absorb 45% of anthropogenic GHG emissions, the ocean sequesters 22.7% of annual human CO2 emissions, and the global forest net C sink is estimated at 10.7 Gt CO2-eq year−1; grasslands store about 343 Gt C and act as a sink for about 1.83 Gt CO2-eq year−1.
- Biochar can reduce soil CH4 emissions by 39.5% and soil N2O emissions by 30.92%, and biochar in cement composites can improve flexural strength by 66%, toughness by 103%, and compressive strength by 40%–50%. For CCUS, the IEA forecasts that 19% of CO2 emissions must be captured and stored to keep global temperature rise below 2°C by 2050, and without CCUS the total cost of CO2 reduction will rise by 70% by 2050.
- Satellite observation for carbon neutrality includes GOSAT launched by Japan in 2009, OCO-2 by the United States in 2014, and TANSAT by China in 2016; Europe’s Sentinel-5P has achieved inversions for CH4, NO2, CO, O3, and other gases, and a new ESA satellite combining CO2 and NO2 observations is expected in 2025.
Methods
- Design: This is a narrative review, not primary research; it synthesizes published literature and technologies for carbon neutrality across energy, food, ecosystems, waste, CCUS, and satellite/Digital Earth domains.
- Data or sample: Not stated in the paper; no primary dataset, sample, or systematic search protocol is described.
- Main analysis: Qualitative synthesis of technologies, current status, challenges, and future perspectives, with selected quantitative estimates drawn from cited literature.
Limitations
- Paper-stated: Many technologies remain at early R&D or demonstration stages, with high cost and energy consumption, scalability constraints, intermittency and storage challenges, uncertain long-term safety for CO2 storage, and unresolved scientific principles for ocean negative emissions.
- Paper-stated: Biochar effectiveness depends on feedstock, production conditions, and post-production processes, and unsuitable biochar may negatively impact plants and beneficial soil microorganisms.
- Evident from the text: As a narrative review, it lacks a systematic review protocol, inclusion criteria, quantitative meta-analysis, and primary data collection, so the strength of evidence varies across the technologies discussed.

The Results and Discussion projects agricultural GHG emissions under alternative 2050 farming scenarios, not a 50% increase in overall GHG emissions. Searches for the claimed 70% increase in energy-related CO2 emissions found no passage addressing it; the paper's 70% figure concerns crop production instead.

The source supports the water-retention and nutrient-availability clause, where the first group of citations appears. Section 3.1 reports increased soil water retention after biochar addition, and section 5.1 reports increased availability of nutrients including calcium and magnesium. The later claims in the sentence have separate citations and are not assessed as claims attributed to this source. (LLM, conf=0.88)
- Supportedcites [237] Pandit, 2018, Biochar improves maize growth by alleviation of nutrient stress in a moderately acidic low-input Nepalese soil, Sci. Total Environ. source
The citation is attached to the water- and nutrient-availability portion of the sentence, not the later claims about microbes, erosion, antibacterial activity, or pollutants. The Introduction reports improved water-holding capacity and plant-available water, and §3.1 reports increases in water retention, plant-available water, and plant-available phosphorus after biochar addition.

Citation 239 is attached to the claim about crust formation and soil erosion, not the other effects listed in the sentence. The Discussion (§4.3) says biochar incorporation might reduce crusting, while the Results (§3.3) report significantly less soil loss in the biochar-amended soil. (LLM, conf=0.92)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
