"Zero carbon" (short for zero [[carbon dioxide]]) is a phrase used by proponents of the AGW theory to denote the phasing out of [[fossil fuel]]s.  Various dates have been set for the achievement of this task.  Many governments have set 2040 as the date for banning production of vehicles with [[gasoline]] and [[diesel]] engines and 2050 as the date for complete elimination of fossil fuel use. The group [[Extinction Rebellion]] wants all fossil fuel use to end by 2025.<ref>https://rebellion.earth/the-truth/demands/</ref>  It hardly needs to be said that none of these targets is achievable.
