The vital challenge on Earth is to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050 in response to the severity of global climate change. A primary task is to reform current production systems to reduce greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions and to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. Our dependence on fossil fuels might be eliminated by leveraging the power of renewable and carbon-neutral inputs to generate energy and other fossil-based substitutes. To slow down global warming, it is crucial to safeguard nature`s carbon sinks and encourage the capture, usage, and storage of CO2. The current article documented various conceptual frameworks for moving toward carbon neutrality by identifying primary GHGs sources and sinks in a cluster of villages and a systematic intervention that aid in mitigation, along with some case study and its limitations in India.
