Books with title The Carbon Cycle

"Readers will discover that the natural element carbon is found in all living things, including people. This fascinating book explains how the Earth's supply of carbon moves among Earth's oceans, atmosphere, ecosystem, and geosphere in a process called the carbon cycle. Accessible text and detailed images help explain such processes as photosynthesis, respiration, and decomposition. Feature boxes highlight examples of the ways in which human activity, such as burning fossil fuels, releases too much carbon dioxide into the air disrupting the balance of the carbon cycle. Readers are encouraged to find ways to take action and find solutions"--

Climate change is a hot topic, but few readers understand exactly how it has disrupted Earth's natural cycles. This text offers a straightforward explanation of the carbon cycle, including what carbon is, the places where it is found, and how it is exchanged. In addition, readers will gain insight into how human activity affects the carbon cycle in nature. Each chapter features charts or photographic illustrations to enhance comprehension, as well as vocabulary boxes and open-ended questions that invite readers to think critically about the topic.

Life on Earth depends on carbon. In fact, about 18.5 percent of a human body's mass is carbon. How carbon is taking in and given off through animals' breathing, the burning of fossil fuels, and more can be shown in the model known as the carbon cycle. Though this concept can be confusing, all readers have a chance to understand this concept through the text and simple diagrams in this book. Both struggling readers and those looking for review can find the most important components and vocabulary of the carbon cycle in low-level, accessible text.
