I think this is the more common name. Two of the criteria on Wikipedia:article titles is to have a recognizable and natural name, and I think carbon budget is superior in both regards. Using a Google search indicates that carbon budget has 816,000 hits, while emissions budget has 47,500. In terms of English, the current title is a tat bit awkward, in the sense that the first word is a plural and plurals don't work well as an adjective. Femke Nijsse ( talk) 15:40, 30 April 2019 (UTC)
I've removed this text block about CDR as I felt this didn't fit here (as it could blow out this article big time if we now explain everything to do with reducing GHG emissions etc.). Instead, I've added an excerpt for climate change mitigation which is the key concept to ensure one stays within one's carbon budget, right?:
Carbon dioxide removal
In order to keep global emissions within a carbon budget, global CO2 emissions need to decline to net zero. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) highlights that the deployment of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) measures is unavoidable if net zero CO2 emissions are to be achieved. [1] These CDR measures are required to counterbalance hard-to-abate residual emissions. [1] The IPCC assessment further highlights that "the scale and timing of deployment will depend on the trajectories of gross emission reductions in different sectors". [1]
CDR can fulfil "thee different complementary roles" according to the IPCC, always in addition to "deep, rapid, and sustained emission reductions": [1] First, CDR can lower net CO2 or net greenhouse gas emissions in the near-term; second, it can counterbalance residual emissions from sectors for which currently no other reduction measures have been identified or for which these are considered too expensive or difficult to implement (e.g., emissions from agriculture, aviation, shipping, industrial processes) in order to help reach net zero CO2 or net zero greenhouse emissions in the mid-term; and third, CDR can be used to achieve net negative CO2 or greenhouse gas emissions in the long-term, if deployed at levels exceeding annual residual emissions.

I've changed the first sentence of the lead to be broader: A carbon budget is a concept used in
climate policy to help set
emissions reduction targets in a fair and effective way.
I used Chat-GPT to help me come up with this. What do people think of this new first sentence?
