A diagram of the carbon cycle with arrows showing the movement of carbon through a landscape with plants and animals, mountains and a volcano, a river leading to the ocean, and an industrial area. Carbon moves in and out of our atmosphere, ocean, waterways, and soil through burning fossil fuels, precipitation, fires, vegetation, volcanoes, and organic processes.
