The Carbon Cycle

The carbon cycle is a complex Earth system where carbon dioxide (CO2) is exchanged among four main regions of the planet. In the carbon cycle, CO2 is recycled through the atmosphere, biosphere, geosphere and oceans and other waterways in what are called "sinks" or reservoirs
but there are many human influncence that is disrupting the carbon cycle such as deforestation, reforestation, increasing or decreasing human or animal populations. other manmade influncence is the burning of fossil fuel, that lead to the raise in greenhouse gas effect. it has taken decades for the release of greenhouse gas to get the , the carbon cycle out of balance. So it will take decades for man to reverse the effect of global warming. there are some way that we as a nation can start making a chance. Using alternative fuels and particularly those created with renewable energy such as solar, wind and water sources will help the carbon cycle and reverse the greenhouse effect.
