1. CARBON CYCLE
The series of processes by which carbon compounds are interconverted in the environment, chiefly involving the incorporation of carbon dioxide into living tissue by photosynthesis and its return to the atmosphere through respiration, the decay of dead organisms, and the burning of fossil fuels.

6. Greenhouse Effect You already know what it is:
Sun’s energy passes through the windshield.
Don’t write this, THINK about it !
Energy (heat) is trapped inside the car & cannot pass back through the windshield, causing the warm up.
