I don't know what the reduction goal is, but a quick duckduckgoing found a number of 45 billion metric tons of CO2 added each year[1] as of 2017, which comes out to 12.2 billion metric tons of carbon (C is ~27% of CO2 by weight). So 4 million metric tons of carbon is about 0.03 percent of that total.
