That in itself creates a problem for the script-writers to resolve. If Carol has had her powers since the 1990s (meaning she became active at about the same time as Tony Stark became Iron Man), then why was she not involved with hunting down The Hulk or repulsing the Chitauri?

Carol Danvers, although a major heroine on Earth, is technically one of Marvel's Cosmic stable. Presumably because she is part Kree in the comics, I'm guessing that by the end of her film Carol will end up in some form of suspended animation. Either that or she's in deep space on a mission or imprisoned, either by the Skrull or the Kree.

She's also spent extended time out in the greater galaxy. Including stretches of time spent with the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Starjammers. Since she would be SHIELD's resident alien expert during the time the Avengers were being formed there are two likely explanations. She was already out in space somewhere fighting the Chitauri or trying to find out more about them and missed the battle for New York. Or during the time she was long out of touch, possibly presumed dead. We'll probably get the answer at the end of her movie, with a post credits scene explaining what she's being doing the last two decades in space and returning to warn SHIELD about Thanos coming for the Infinity Gems.
TheEvilDog:
Neko pretty much hit the nail on the head. Let's not forget that War Machine wasn't there for the Battle of New York. Neither was Hank Pam. Even if you have supersonic speed, it still takes a while to travel across a continent. So really, the most likely reasons why Carol wasn't fighting was either she's in space and has been for several years, or she's gone Binary and it's taking her time to return.
Neko_Ali:
War Machine wasn't around at that time, was he? I forget when Iron Man 2 came out right now. Ant Man was a different story... Maybe SHIELD didn't know he was Hank Pym, though that seems unlikely. Maybe they knew he was retired and not fit for super heroing anymore.
TheEvilDog:
Iron Man 2 was the third film in the MCU, 2 movies before Avengers Assemble.
And the MCU version of Hank Pym was a founding member of SHIELD (or a very early agent). My point was that there will be plenty of heroes or assets who were operating at the time of the Battle of New York that simply couldn't make it to New York in time.
