emission targets
Carbon reduction goals
Emission targets are goals set by governments, organizations, or international agreements to limit the release of pollutants—especially greenhouse gases—into the atmosphere.
Countries commit to emission targets under climate accords, pledging to reduce carbon dioxide output by specific percentages within set timeframes: The nation announced ambitious emission targets for 2030.
