This isn't Volvos this is volcanoes.

We need to breathe.

We stopped tilling, so that we could prevent greenhouse gasses from going into the air.

The botanical names are in front of you.

We inject our own aerosols into the atmosphere, and we have trace gases, and not just carbon dioxide it's methane, ozone, oxides of sulfur and nitrogen.

Aluminum buffer action, aluminum hydroxide is what we think it is, uh, plus the barium carbonate, strontium titanate, strontium oxides, barium oxides, probably some aluminum oxides in there.

Trees give off oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide.

Now, as we breathe, we produce carbon dioxide, and that carbon dioxide needs to be scrubbed out of the system.

If you fracture it, you can look at the fact that it's nanostructured.

10 times better than our fog catching nets.

Inert nitrogen, high concentration of carbon dioxide crystals, methane...

So, fungi and mycelium sequester carbon dioxide in the form of calcium oxalates.

A very simple example is this When the world was primarily plants, the environment, which had carbon dioxide and some oxygen in it when they first started,

Tropical rainforests produce oxygen and consume carbon dioxide.

Then of course, there's all that

Makes the rocks crumble, and the first step in the generation of soil.

Carbon dioxide, having never gone above 300 parts per million, here is where CO2 is now.

The amount of carbon dioxide has increased by 10 percent.

So, carbon dioxide the stuff we want to get rid of not sugar, not anything.

And it puts 18 thousand tons of carbon dioxide in the air.

And the problem with a traditional nuclear power plant like this is, you've got these rods that are clad in zirconium, and inside them are uranium dioxide fuel pellets.

When the ocean absorbs a lot of CO₂, the water becomes more acidic.

Carbon dioxide is not a poison in itself.

I realize that they are microfiltration membranes.

Each cylinder is about 10 percent ancient air, a pristine time capsule of greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide all unchanged from the day that snow formed and first fell.

And that waste could be all sorts of things, and one that kind of jumps to mind is carbon dioxide (CO2).

We've also talked about concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

If you could get a deal at Copenhagen, where people agreed,

And several things are important.

So why is this relevant? Because when you put animals and plants in the same environment,

I mean, you can have blood flow, but at some point it's also going to want some oxygen.

A warmer ocean releases CO2, just as a warm Coca Cola does.

Massive amounts of carbon dioxide are generated every day.

This is a violent process.

Canaries used to be used as kind of biosensors in mines.

So that's one thing what the lungs gonna help me pick up and I'm gonna write O2 for oxygen.

You do that, you get lightheaded, you get tingling.

Now, because the fate of water and carbon are tied to soil organic matter, when we damage soils, you give off carbon.

Carbon dioxide sometimes harms people.

CO2 as a building block.

How one time you taught about carbon dioxide by making grape soda in class.

It's an absurd idea.

But the real powers of this place come from phytoplankton.

So this breath is not just about exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.

So nature created a balance, and the balance was called animals.
