For example, alternative terms like “carbon increasing” and “carbon reducing” might make it more clear and avoid misinterpreting which means which?

    Not OP, but I imagine “carbon negative” sounds negative because it has the word “negative” in it.

    When it fact “carbon negative” means you’re reducing carbon, which is generally regarded as a positive thing.
