2  How does carbon move in and out of the atmosphere?  Why has the amount of carbon dioxide increased recently  What is a carbon neutral fuel

4  Carbon is often called the building block of life as it is found in all organic molecules  Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. What does this mean?

5

6  How is carbon dioxide removed from the atmosphere by green plants?  Can you write a word equation for this?

7  Oceans are called sinks for carbon dioxide  Carbon dioxide is absorbed by sea water and makes insoluble carbonates

8  1 R  Can you write a word equation for this  2. Decomposition by microbes of dead trees  3. Deforestation

12  Absorbs carbon dioxide to form carbonates which are insoluble and fall to the bottom of the sea  Absorbs carbon dioxide which forms soluble hydrogen carbonates which remain dissolved in sea water  Seas and oceans act as BUFFERS

13  The hole in the ozone layer is causing global warming?

14  A record hot day is evidence of global warming

15  Burning fossil fuels contributes to global warming

16  Global warming will cause less rain.

17  List how carbon dioxide is removed from the air?  List how carbon dioxide is added to the air  What is the result of too much carbon dioxide?
