Milestone One
-
A question that I have is how have humans since the industrial revolution, contributed to more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. -
This experiment is so important because the rising climate change from CO2 levels is going to impact all aspects of life. -
In 2022, the gloabal average for carbon dioxide was 417.06 ppm which was a new record high (Lindsey, 2023). o
Carbon dioxide levels have mostly risen due to the use of fossil fuels that humans burn for energy. -
Carbon is the second most abundant element in living organisms (Libretexts, 2021). The carbon cycle is a biological process that involves living things. -
- Carbon cycles through the atmosphere, biosphere geosphere, and hydrosphere from processes such as photosynthesis, fire, burning of fossil fuels weathering and volcanism University of California Museum of Paleontology (2022). -
This experiment will relate to the basics principles of biology by using the scientific method and utilizing subject matter I have learned in this class to make a concise presentation. -
People have been tracking that amount of carbon dioxide for many years, so experiments like this have been done that I will be able to reference and fine tune my own.
-
Relating the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere to the carbon cycle is how I will include biology topics in this presentation.

Human Activities and Earth's Atmosphere
vidence from scientific studies supports the claim that human activities are contributing to the
creasing average global surface temperature on Earth as observed for the past 100 years. The
oncentration of greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere have increased during this time and are
ought to be the major cause for changes in global climate Graph 1 represents the relative
ntribution of human activities that are likely causing global climate change. Graph 2 represents the
ative amounts of various greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Question 14
What is the connection between excess carbon in the atmosphere and the ocean as a car
bon sink?
Carbon from acid rain gets trapped in the ocean, causing the pH of the ocean to
decrease.
More of the ocean floor becomes the home of plants as carbon dioxide levels increase.
Carbon flakes fall from the atmosphere into the ocean, providing food for fish.
The ocean absorbs excess carbon, so global warming has fewer consequences.
