The Carbon github page lists some of their reasons to create a new 
languagage:

Welcoming open-source community

  - Clear goals and priorities with robust governance
  - Community that works to be welcoming, inclusive, and friendly
  - Batteries-included approach: compiler, libraries, docs, tools, 
package manager, and more


Apparently those are things believed to be missing for C++.
