Carbon Cycle
Earth has a natural carbon cycle that helps keep our planet in a habitable temperature range.Unintentional Disruption
Humans unintentionally disrupt the carbon cycle by burning carbon-based fuels like coal, oil, and gas.Earth Warms Up
Burning these carbon-based fuels overloads the carbon cycle. This causes the planet to warm up.Small Change, Big Trouble
Even a small change impacts hundreds of millions of lives and costs trillions.- Extreme weather events like stronger storms and worse floods.
- Shortages of food and water, rising sea levels that threaten coastal communities.
- Property damage from disasters.
- Infrastructure failures like roads and power lines.
- Higher costs for everyday goods and business losses.
