Term (also decarbonisation) for the conversion of an economy, especially the energy industry, towards a lower turnover of carbon or a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The aim is to create a carbon-free economy as part of the energy transition in connection with the negative effects of climate change, particularly for agriculture and viticulture. The relentless burning of fossil fuels such as petrol, oil and coal produces huge quantities of additional carbon dioxide, which causes the greenhouse effect. It is contained in the earth's atmosphere as a trace gas with a volume share of around 0.038%.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
