Which of the following statements is/are correct with reference to the ‘net zero’ carbon targets?

A. Net-zero, which is also referred to as carbon-neutrality, does not mean that a country would bring down its emissions to zero.

B. One way by which carbon can be absorbed is by creating carbon sinks.

C. Both A & B
