Carbon neutralization has become a significant, inevitable, and urgent strategy for both adaptation and mitigation of global warming caused by anthropogenic CO2 emissions, and its environmental consequences such as ocean acidification. However, the reduction of anthropogenic CO2 emissions often conflicts with economic development. In contrast, environmentally-friendly negative carbon emissions can be a way of killing two birds with one stone, capturing carbon dioxide and ensuring economic development, and therefore become imperative to achieve carbon-neutral goals.
