Carbon is nicely discussed on hackernews 
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32151609

In summary it seems to be a language customized to Google needs, 
Google uses C++ extensively and have their own C++ style guide

Rust was too safe for them, so a migration to Rust seem to have 
been too much work

This is doesn't seem like competitor to D or even Rust, this is a 
custom language for Google

I don't think D should even try to compete or compare with it, 
you can't compete with a custom language and you should not
