I WONDER - Where Does Carbon Come From?

The video explains three main ways carbon is released into the environment: combustion, respiration, and decay. Combustion involves burning fossil fuels, trees, or plants, releasing carbon into the air. Respiration is a natural process where living beings convert oxygen into carbon dioxide, which is then exhaled. When plants and animals die, they decay, releasing carbon back into the earth or air, completing the carbon cycle.
