Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an odorless gas that is vital to life on the planet. CO2 is also known as a greenhouse gas, because its presence in the atmosphere can disturb the natural regulation of temperature, resulting in global warming.
CO2 levels have risen dramatically as a result of the Industrial Revolution and the exponential growth of manufacturing activity all over the world. The primary sources of CO2 are deforestation, agriculture, and the use of fossil fuels. China, the United States, India, Russia, and Japan are the top five countries that produce the most CO2, according to the most recent data from the Global Carbon Project.

To offset the roughly 2.2 million metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions linked with the company’s operations, it will have to repeat its Wuxi accomplishment 37 times.
