Net Zero, or “Zero Net Emissions,” is an environmental goal aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions to a point of balance, thereby bringing total net emissions down to zero, which plays a vital role in mitigating the impacts of climate change. In November 2021, during the COP26 conference held in Scotland, Viet Nam committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 and reducing methane emissions by 30% by 2030. These commitments were highly regarded and opened up opportunities for cooperation with both domestic and international partners, promoting the development of a circular economy and adaptation to climate change.
